Brian of London - person tag profile

This page is going to serve as a template and example for how Hive can be used to store and serve the Profile for the new Podcast Person tags in Hive account@podcastindex Podcast 2.0.

And for those on Hive who don't know what I'm talking about, go follow Hive account@podcastindex and especially starting listening to the Podcasting 2.0 Podcast which posts every week on Hive. I'm hard at work making a Hive version of what they're calling Value for Value on that show.

Person

<podcast:person>
This element specifies a person of interest to the podcast. It is primarily intended to identify people like hosts, co-hosts and guests. Although, it is flexible enough to allow fuller credits to be given using the roles and groups that are listed in the Podcast Taxonomy Project

Parent

<item> or <channel>

Count

Multiple

Node value

This is the full name or alias of the person. This value cannot be blank.

Attributes

• role: (optional) Used to identify what role the person serves on the show or episode. This should be a reference to an official role within the Podcast Taxonomy Project list (see below). If role is missing then "host" is assumed.
• group: (optional) This should be a reference to an official group within the Podcast Taxonomy Project list. If group is not present, then "cast" is assumed.
• img: (optional) This is the url of a picture or avatar of the person.
• href: (optional) The url to a relevant resource of information about the person, such as a homepage or third-party profile platform. Please see the example feed for possible choices of what to use here.

The role and group attributes are case-insensitive. So, "Host" is the same as "host", and "Cover Art Designer" is the same as "cover art designer".

The full taxonomy list is here as a json file.

Please do not exceed 128 characters for the node value or attribute values, or they may be truncated by aggregators.
