== Abstract ==

Regarding Draft-09... add an explicit statement that the server
determines when and if the atom:updated element is modified

== Status ==

Proposed

== Rationale ==

Whether or not to change atom:updated on an update request is
implementation specific and can only reasonably be determined by the
server.  A server could choose to use the atom:updated value provided by
the client, but is not required to do so.

== Proposal ==

{{{
8.6 Editing members and the atom:updated element

Upon successfully processing an update request on a member resource
or linked media resource, a server MAY modify the value of the members
atom:updated element.

How about replacing "Upon successfully" with "When"?

I don't think the rest of the paragraph offers any value.

 The choice of whether or not to modify the
value of atom:updated is an implementation choice that is dependent on
whether or not the server considers the update to be significant.
}}}

Of course, this doesn't answer the question for atom:title, or atom:content,
or...
