Protocol Action: 'Atom Threading Extensions' to Proposed Standard
The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Atom Threading Extensions ' as a Proposed Standard This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Lisa Dusseault. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-snell-atompub-feed-thread-12.txt Technical Summary This draft proposes some extensions to the Atom Syntax specification so that the relationship of one Atom entry to another (for example, when one entry is a comment on a blog post which is another entry). Working Group Summary This is not a WG draft. Nevertheless, the AtomPub WG discussion on this draft was fairly lengthy, and resulted in a number of changes to the draft. Protocol Quality As of May 2006, Feed Thread support has several independent implementations andeven some interoperability testing. This document was reviewed for the IESG by Lisa Dusseault.

Protocol Action: 'The Atom Syndication Format' to Proposed Standard
The IESG has approved the following document: - 'The Atom Syndication Format ' as a Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Atom Publishing Format and Protocol Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Scott Hollenbeck and Ted Hardie. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-atompub-format-11.txt Technical Summary: This document describes the Atom format for syndication. It is XML-based and is considered to be the successor to the earlier RSS formats. Its primary use is for web-based content, but is expected to be used for non-web content as well, such as personal news feeds. Working Group Summary: Some members of the working group remain unenthusiastic about some sections of the document, but the chairs strongly believe that there is rough (or better) consensus in support of the document as a whole. For some of the parts with the most contention, there cannot be more than very rough consensus due to basic differences in the way people would design parts of the format, particularly given that we have many models in existence with the different flavors of RSS. For some parts of the document, there is contention about whether or not a particular item should or should not be in the Atom core versus being an extension. For some parts, there is contention whether there should be MUST/SHOULD/MAY leeway for content creators in the presence or absence of an element, or the semantic content of an element; the group really pushed RFC 2119 around during the past few months. Protocol Quality Scott Hollenbeck and the XML Directorate have reviewed the specification for the IESG. Test implementations have confirmed basic protocol soundness.
