Although helpful in recognizing an OPML file, the file extension .opml isn't obligatory. When a service or tool capable of processing an OPML file, such as an RSS reader, imports an OPML file, it's the XML elements inside the file that determine if and how the file is processed. Blog rolls are just one way of using of OPML. I've seen people build multi-leveled help files with it and there are many other applications. It's wonderful to notice that you endorse the OPML icon from http://www.opmlicons.com How would it sound to you if your OPML file were auto-discoverable just like your RSS feed? And have you considered offering your OPML file using an OPML browser such as Grazr? I hope you appreciate the ideas. Hi Mike,
