Detailed Description

Person objects hold information about a person, such as the author of the content syndicated in the feed.

Depending on the feed format, different information is available. While according to the RSS2 spec, RSS2 author elements must contain only an e-mail address, Atom requires the person's name and the e-mail address is optional. Also, in reality, feeds often contain other information than what is specified in the specs. Syndication tries to find out what author information is contained and maps it to this representation.
