In this chapter you learn about the background to the case study that you’ll work through in the remainder of the book. It details the business requirements of a news and features service, and provides information about workflows and data structures.
We also introduce the three standards specified in the requirements: Publishing Requirements for Industry Standard Metadata (PRISM), the Resource Definition Format (RDF), and RDF Site Summary (RSS).
To round off this section, you’ll also look at our first thoughts on a design solution.
