The BBC has announced a limited trial of podcasting for some of its radio programming. It must really be taking off! We're working on podcasting support and RSS 2 from knotes.

This is the kind of audio content that could make a podcasting convert out of many here in the UK. The BBC has announced a trail of podcasting. A list of BBC audio feeds has been posted. The programmes will only be available for 7 days after broadcast. The list itself may not please everyone: there are rights issues, apparently, preventing some of the more popular shows from being podcast. An FAQ page is available:

Can the BBC offer the Archers as a download and podcast?

Unfortunately the rights situation is very complex for all radio drama, including the Archers. Therefore we can't offer any radio dramas as downloads and podcasts as part of the current trial.

We've been working towards podcasting in knotes and RSS-2 feeds from knotes. Watch our knotations blog for more news on that front next month.
