With the prevalence of JSON in Web APIs, a further format, JSON Feed, was defined in 2017. Dave Winer published a modified version of the RSS 0.91 specification on the UserLand website, covering how it was being used in his company's products, and claimed copyright to the document. A few months later, UserLand filed a U.
