      # * <tt>:root_url</tt>: The HTML alternative that this feed is doubling for. Defaults to / on the current host.
      # * <tt>:url</tt>: The URL for this feed. Defaults to the current URL.
      # * <tt>:schema_date</tt>: The date at which the tag scheme for the feed was first used. A good default is the year you 
      #   created the feed. See http://feedvalidator.org/docs/error/InvalidTAG.html for more information. If not specified, 
      #   2005 is used (as an "I don't care" value).
