The link relation 'alternate' is perfectly valid for both Entry and Feed documents, depending on what type of resource they are linked from. An index page of a website can have an 'alternate' relation to an Atom Feed, while an individual article page (or "entry" page) can have an 'alternate' relation to an Atom Entry.
As it can to a feed with one entry.
Both link relations are identical, but the client has absolutely no clue before it GETs the URI whether what sits on the other end is an Atom Feed or an Atom Entry.
Nor should it need to distinguish, just like it doesn't need to distinguish between a feed with multiple entries, versus one with one entry. Mark.
