Remarks

SyndicationPerson objects can be added to the authors and contributors collections on SyndicationFeed and SyndicationItem objects.

When serialized to Atom 1.0, the SyndicationPerson is written out as an <author> or <contributor> element.

When serialized to RSS 2.0, a SyndicationPerson instance is written out as a <managingEditor>, <a10:author>, or <a10:contributor> element. How a SyndicationPerson is serialized depends on the number of SyndicationPerson objects added to a SyndicationFeed or SyndicationItem, which collection the SyndicationPerson instances are added to, and the value of the SerializeExtensionAsAtom parameter to the Rss20ItemFormatter(SyndicationItem, Boolean) constructor. If only one SyndicationPerson is added to the Authors (or Authors) collection, the SyndicationPerson is serialized to a <managingEditor> element. If more than one SyndicationPerson is added to the Authors (or Authors) collection and SerializeExtensionsAsAtom is set to true, all of the SyndicationPerson objects are serialized to <a10:author> elements. If SerializeExtensionsAsAtom is set to false, the SyndicationPerson instances are not serialized. Any SyndicationPerson instances added to the Contributors (or Contributors) collection are serialized only if SerializeExtensionsAsAtom is set to true, in which case they are serialized to <a10:contributor> elements.
