I have created this article with some reilance on the CAP OASIS publication, but I have made sufficient changes and additions to the text to deem it my own. Please feel free to add further information so that we can make this article a worthwhile wikipedia publication Tomer

POV check

This article is quite promotional of CAP, especially the later sections. It needs some reworking to make it neutral. --K. AKA Konrad West TALK 09:40, 19 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A slightly less passionate version

I've reworked Tomer's initial text to remove some of the advocacy that characterized most of the early CAP documents.

Usage

I ran across CAP for the first time on the US National Weather Service's[1] website today. I haven't found any information on how it differs from RSS, and how an end-user might make use of it. Can someone enlighten me, please?--Woden325 15:44, 24 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Protocol?

CAP is not actually a protocol, is it? As I read it, it's just a message format (I guess Common Alerting Markup Language didn't sound good enough). Should the article make that distinction clear? -Jeff Worthington 20:35, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
