There are a number of standards for supporting 'tags' in RSS including:

dc:subject RSS 2.0 'category' mod_taxonomy

How are we going to build a generic API that supports all systems currently in use?

Delicious

<taxo:topics>
<rdf:Bag>
<rdf:li resource="http://del.icio.us/tag/programming"/>
</rdf:Bag>
</taxo:topics>

Technorati

Technorati tags seems totally proprietary:

To contribute to this tag, just make a post to your blog about met and include a link to this page like so:

<a href="http://technorati.com/tag/met" rel="tag">met</a>

Which is totally proprietary...

Furl

Furl also supports tags:

http://www.furl.net/members/rss.xml?topic=technology

And the resulting XML would include:

<category>Technology</category>
<dc:creator>ggussis</dc:creator>
<guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.furl.net/item.jsp?id=1741406</guid>
<pubDate>Wed, 19 Jan 2005 19:21:32 GMT</pubDate>
<furl:rating>3</furl:rating>
<furl:clipping/>

Ideal HTML specification
