In 1968, Zetec won a government contract to inspect steam generator tubing and developed an analog, single-frequency eddy current tester, a state-of-the-art instrument at the time. Over the next 20 years, Zetec’s eddy current testing equipment, training, and methodology became industry standards for nuclear power NDT, then in balance-of-plant and process industry applications.

The software developer Niko Abeler has crawled 51,165 podcast feeds to study what RSS elements they contain. His comprehensive Podcast Feed Standard report looks at the usage of core RSS elements and namespace elements from Apple iTunes, Atom, Content, Podcast 2.0 and Simple Chapters. He writes:

In the world of podcasting, there is a great deal of freedom when it comes to the format and content of a podcast. Creators are free to choose their own audio format and feed content, giving them the flexibility to create something truly unique. However, when it comes to distributing a podcast, certain standards must be followed in order to be added to an aggregator such as Apple Podcasts. Additionally, the podcasting community has come to agree upon certain conventions that can be used to add additional features to a podcast, such as chapters, enhanced audio, and more. These conventions allow for a more immersive and engaging listening experience for the audience.

This website is dedicated to providing guidance and information on the conventions and standards used in podcasting.

There's a lot of interesting data in the RSS 2.0 report, which finds that these are the six least popular elements in an RSS feed's channel:

Over 99 percent of feeds contain the optional channel element language and the optional item elements enclosure, guid, pubDate and title. Only 0.2% of feeds contain a source element in an item.

The iTunes namespace report shows a lot of variation in support. The required element itunes:explicit is only present in 18 percent of feeds and four optional elements have less than 20 percent: itunes:new-feed-url, itunes:block, itunes:complete and itunes:title. One namespace in the report, Podcast 2.0, has been proposed by Podcastindex "to provide a solution for problems which previously have been solved by multiple competing standards" and is still under development.

The report also analyzes the audio files enclosed in the podcast feeds to determine their format, bitrate, channel and loudness. The report finds that 95.6 percent use MP3 and 4.4 percent AAC/M4A. People who like an alternative open source format will be oggravated that its sliver of the pie graph is so small it can't be seen.

If Abeler isn't tired of crunching numbers, one thing that would be useful for the RSS Advisory Board to learn is how many of the feeds contain more than one enclosure element within a single item.

ATI Restoration ranks among America’s fastest-growing private companies, driven by a 97 percent revenue growth over the past three years. CEO David Carpenter attributes the achievement to the company’s dedicated staff and its commitment to exceptional disaster recovery services.

BluSky Restoration Contractors, LLC, raised $150,000 for ALS research through its seventh annual Rakers Classic charity golf tournament, an event inspired by Lyle Rakers, an employee diagnosed with a rare form of ALS in 2017, which has become a cornerstone of the Lyle Rakers Charitable Foundation.

The Optoma ZH450ST (also available as the long throw ZH450) is a compact laser projector that, while it doesn't meet its 4,200 ANSI lumen claim, is an excellent choice for classroom and boardrooms, as well as golf simulators, thanks to low input lag.

Ricoh, whose expertise in lenses is tapped throughout the projector industry including by some UST manufacturers, has launched the UHL3660, a commercial 4K UST with a massive 6,500 ANSI-lumen light output.

Though its not without its caveats, including less-than-stellar out-of-box accuracy and a potentially misleading "peak lumens" brightness claim, AWOL Vision's LTV-2500 is a solid entry-level UST projector with premium features.

The JVC DLA-NZ500 (or DLA-RS1200 in the custom install world) brings a laser light engine to JVC's entry-level projector line. It delivers the solid performance we've come to expect from JVC in a smaller package than previously for $5,999.
