So far I havenât seen a cogent explanation of the significant semantics offered by an empty atom:summary inside an otherwise valid minimum atom:entry (with an atom:id, atom:title, and atom:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'alternate']). Near as I can tell, there is no discernible difference between an empty and an absent summary (given the presence of the mandatory other information!). Tentatively +1. I also suggest that any cogent explanation would need to be put on record in the spec, to alert implementors to the issues and guide them to an educated choice. Otherwise, they are likely to disregard this issue either wilfully or out of negligence. Regards, -- Aristotle
