Don't you have the same problem with atom:modified? What if the
publisher does not update the atom:modified entry?

I presume any "atom:modified" element would have to be incremented every time any change was made, so this wouldn't be an option.


I prefer a solution where the originating point of the entry puts the current time in a new element when it generates the atom:entry. Then it's easy to work out which is the newest version, in a way atom:updated doesn't allow.

are the same in two or more entries? I thought it was up to the
publisher to decide whether to rev atom:updated.

Agreed.
