I send this to debian-www@lists.debian.org also...
No joey, IMHO a debian rdf file is better. And I don't also talk, I also
write some diff.
I don't know webwml, please check this all.
security.rdf.wml in webwml/english/security:

IMHO this is ok.
If someone will add this, he should maybe add a new www.debian.org/rdf/ dir and
put other rdf's in this dir (like debian news, events, votes, ...)
