ROR (Resources of a Resource)
Anyone heard of this ?

Seems its another input for Search Engines.

To me it appears as yet another <meta/> / robots.txt system ;)

I don't think it will be very succesful because you (or the search engine) will have to check the real content anyway.

True - but slowly everything is being switched to XML format now.
I do think it'll be much better if robots.txt gets switched over to robots.xml.

Ugh, please no. I hate the growing trend to XML-ify everything.

XML is a useful technology, but its not a pancea. In many cases it only adds overhead to both storage and processing.

What are the limitations you experience now with a robots.txt files? And how would robots.xml solve those?
