Reading a little, it seems that syndication is more of a specific practice
which makes use of syndication formats like RSS and Atom. To be honest I
haven't heard the term syndication in that context before. Wikipedia, e.g.,
refers to these formats as "web feeds", too. I'm not aware of any danger
of confusion with other web technology if I name it "gb.web.feed" instead.
