For the purpose of discussion, here’s how I’d do that now:
<entry>
<title>The Atom Syndication Format</title>
<link href="http://del.icio.us/url/longhashvaluehere"/>
<link rel="related" href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4287"/>
<content type="xhtml"><div xmlns="...">
<a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4287"/>The Atom Syndication
Format</a>:
An alternative to RSS2.
</div></content>
<category term="rfc"/>
</entry>
It bugs me to repeat the link in the content, but the all-around
absence of support for `related` links requires this sort of hack
to make the feed useful with today’s aggregators. Even then, such
a feed would not be useful as a Live Bookmark in Firefox.
