If we accept this Pace, are we going to do anything to address the DOS issue for aggregated feeds?
Bob, if I may direct a few question to you, since you have the most experience with this issue: if PaceAllowDuplicateIDs is adopted, how would you anticipate that PubSub would go about handling entries with the same atom:id coming from different feeds? What if each appears to be claiming to be the original feed for the entry? What if both are getting aggregated into the same feed, but your system doesn't think they're really the same entry?
I'm in favor of the Pace, as far as it goes, but was surprised to see that it doesn't talk about these issues, given that it was motivated by a conversation with you.
