Judging from his blog, Dave Winer is trying to build something that will tie in RSS with Twitter, Mastodon, and so on.
I first learned his name here on HN a while ago, although he doesn't seem to participate here. He thinks he's doing great new stuff, but as in this thread, his name rarely seems to come up in other people's discussions of RSS.
"Some feared that the inability for people to get along with Dave Winer would further damage the development of RSS."[0]
