== Abstract == Remove the requirement for a feed-level link element.
== Status == Open == Rationale == The requirement makes people jump through hoops for little gain, since there is a strong incentive to provide the link if you have something. Unlike entries, feeds are almost always dereferenced from a URI. == Proposal == In section 4.1.1, strike the line that reads "atom:feed elements MUST contain at least one atom:link element with a relation of "alternate"." and replace it with "atom:feed elements MUST NOT contain more than one atom:link element with a rel attribute value of "alternate" that has the same combination of type and hreflang attribute values." == Impacts == == Notes == ---- CategoryProposals
