## Future improvements
### iTunes fancy podcasting
* [iTunes-specific tags](https://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html)
appear to be RSS-only
* If they work in Atom, teach `inline` to optionally iTunesify RSS/Atom.
* Else, add `itunes` as a third kind of feed (RSS plus more stuff).
* Notable tags for feeds:
* `itunes:subtitle`
* `itunes:author`
* `itunes:summary` (same as `description`)
* `itunes:owner` (includes `itunes:name` and `itunes:email`)
* `itunes:image href=''`
* `itunes:publisher`
* `itunes:category text=''` (can contain subcategories)
* `itunes:keywords`
* Notable tags for entries:
* `itunes:duration`

* [[!cpan Audio::TagLib]] might be fastest, if present and applicable
* [ffprobe](http://ffmpeg.org/ffprobe.html) is reasonably fast
* [mediainfo](http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/) is way slower
* Cache computed durations as pagestate
### Fancy podcast aggregating
* Write tests comparing a fancy podcast (HTML and feeds) against
the same podcast aggregated and republished, then make them pass
via changes to `aggregatepost.impl` and [[plugins/aggregate]].
### Other ideas

* Optionally specify the enclosure's:
* MIME type, in case `File::MimeInfo` guesses wrong.
* Duration, in case `ffprobe` guesses wrong.
* Optionally specify enclosures outside the wiki:
* Some people don't want to store big unchanging files in the VCS.
* Other people like [podcasting found media](http://huffduffer.com/about).
* We'd have to download the file just to compute some metadata
about it, and then somehow not frequently re-download it.
* Configurably generate additional subscription links (such as
iTunes) alongside the RSS/Atom ones in [[plugins/inline]].
* Support Apple's "enhanced podcasts" (if they're still relevant).
