status of geoRSS, geoAtom, cursor-on-target

[Miles Fidelman]

Hi Folks,

For a while, geoRSS was all the rage for event tracking, with
cursor-on-target as the military equivalent.

As I was looking at data for the California Fires, I noticed that geoRSS
feeds, which used to be all the rage on the CALFIRE sites - aren't there
anymore, though some seem to be available from private sources.

Which leads me to ask:  Is there anything in common use, these days, for
open, interoperable event feeds?  Is this a problem we should be
focusing some attention on?
