[MKDoc-dev] RSS auto-discovery and firefox 1.5

[Bruno Postle]

With firefox 1.0.x, MKDoc rss feeds were detected and an icon
appeared so they could be bookmarked.  With the latest firefox 1.5
release candidate this icon doesn't appear anymore.

The MKDoc fragment that no longer works:

  <link rel="syndication"
    href="http://www.mkdoc.com/.headlines.rss"
    title="RSS 1.0 Headlines"
    type="application/xml; charset=UTF-8"
    hreflang="en-gb" />
    
These two are ok:

  <link rel="alternate"
    title="Slashdot RSS"
    href="http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot"
    type="application/rss+xml">

  <link
  href="http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonline_world_edition/front_page/rss.xml"
  rel="alternate"
  type="application/rss+xml"
  title="rss" />

This blog suggests that link rel="alternate syndication" should
work instead of just "syndication":
