Since you probably do not want to write XML by hand...

This seems to be the general consensus, but I've never had a problem with it. I have a very simple rss 2.0 feed which uses the following format:


<rss version="2.0">
<channel>
<title>Page the feed refers to</title>
<link>http://www.mysite.com/URLof/thatpage.html</link>
<description>Explanation of what the information on the page/feed is</description>
<language>en-us</language>
<copyright>Copyright 2004, mysite.com</copyright>

<item>
<title>Title of item#1</title>
<link>http://www.mysite.com/URLof/thatpage.html#item1</link>
<description>short summary of item</description>
</item>

<item>
<title>Title of item#2</title>
<link>http://www.mysite.com/URLof/thatpage.html#item2</link>
<description>short summary of item</description>
</item>
</channel>

</rss>


I find it very easy to do cut and paste edits from my HTML file (when I update it) into my RSS file and then upload them to my server together.
