The Review (RVW) Module for RSS 2.0 (via Catalogablog): "provides a metadata structure for reviews (movie, restaurant, etc.) within 'blogs." - "Many people publish reviews on their own websites, but it is currently difficult to take all these opinions into account when making a decision. Individual reviews may have their own rating scheme, may lack a definite description of the subject of the review, and may be of books, music, films, restaurants, beaches, politicians, or any other subject."
It is a simple scheme to embed rating metadata in RSS feeds, with a field that describes rating range (from 1 to 10 for example) and a rating number. Nice.
