Preview of CAP messages for Earthquake events
The USGS Earthquake Hazards Program and Office of Communications
are almost ready to announce a new service that provides CAP
messages for reviewed reports of Earthquake events.

CAP alerts will be posted to
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/recenteqsww/catalogs/cap/

An RSS feed that selects, for example, Earthquake events at
magnitude 3.0 or greater, will be posted at
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/recenteqsww/catalogs/caprss3.0.xml
(This RSS feed will be linked from the USGS home page to
http://www.usgs.gov/homepage/rss_feeds.asp

You will notice that the RSS feed applies a stylesheet to the
CAP alert to transform it from XML to HTML.

Any comments on this would be greatly appreciated, especially
if you can send comments immediately so your suggestions can
be addressed before the public announcement!
