Experience
Both Technorati and Attensa have implementation experience with Attention.XML and other attention formats.
Lessons Learned
- Hierarchy in the format gets in the way more than it helps
- Need to define a minimally useful subset for ease of implementation and interoperability
- Need to "chunk" any sets of additional data
Goals / Requirements
Definite
- Needs to be represent sparse (over time and source) data
Possible
- Easily converted to a stream
