Reduced Space Symbology (RSS) is now called GS1 DataBar™
02 Mar 2007: GS1 announced today the adoption of the name "GS1 DataBar" for its new bar code, in replacement of the previously used "RSS" (Reduced Space Symbology), as the symbol enters the broad adoption phase. The name change is required to avoid confusion with “RSS” very broadly used on the Web for "Really Simple Syndication". The GS1 DataBar name was selected because it is easy to remember and pronounce and works in all major languages. It also fits perfectly with the GS1 DataMatrix™ name already used for GS1’s version of this 2-dimensional bar code.
