Is <dl> element from XHTML 1.0 adapted to display a resource tag list or a subscription feed ?

Question

I wonder if the <dl> element from XHTML 1.0 is semantically valid to display a resource tag list, like that:

<dl>
    <dt>Tags</dt>
    <dd><a href="">Lorem</a></dd>
    <dd><a href="">Ipsum</a></dd>
    <dd><a href="">Dolor</a></dd>
</dl>

Or with a subscription feed, as the code bellow shows:

<dl>
    <dt>Feeds</dt>
    <dd><a href=""><img src="atom.png" alt="Atom" /></a></dd>
    <dd><a href=""><img src="rss.png" alt="RSS" /></a></dd>
</dl>

Or is the <ul> element more adapted to these examples?

Answer 1

The dl statement was originally intended to show a definition list. You want to show a list of available feeds. That's not "here's the lemma, here's the explanation" thingy that you use in a dictionary (and the relation is often 1:1, i.e., one dt and one dd).

So: no, the dl statement is not semantically the correct choice. ul is better suited, or a little table.

EDIT: for comparison, <dt>Feed</dt><dd>An automatically retrievable set of information</dd> would suit better. Note that "dt" means "definition term" and "dd" means "definition description" of "definition data".
