I responded to Bill on this earlier in this thread:
(http://www.imc.org/atom-protocol/mail-archive/msg05092.html)
"Does it matter? There are two URIs that have different
representations, whether or not those are the 'same' resource
is a server implementation detail and as far as I can tell
has no impact on the interop of the protocol."
I have to think a bit more about that… so more on this later…
Right now the spec does not forbid using the same URI for both
the media and the meta-data. I think adding language to force the
two to be different URIs would be over specification, but maybe we
need to add text that warns client implementors to carefully set their
Accept: headers?
+2 ;-)
