Topic: Namespace Tags

A project is underway to document and attribute the original creators of various Podcasting 2.0 namespace tags. Credits are being assigned to individuals like James Cridland for the location tag and Alex Gates for the alternate enclosure tag, while the hosts claim co-creator status for the value tag.

Daniel J. Lewis has proposed a new "contact" tag for the podcast namespace (GitHub issue 770), developed in consultation with Alex Sanfilippo. This tag provides a structured way to expose email, social handles, and booking information for guests and sponsors, replacing the unstandardized iTunes owner fields. The proposal includes specific roles such as "sponsor pitch," "guest invite," and "interview feedback."
