This is precisely why the expires/max-age needs to operate strictly on the entry level. The expires/max-age elements may appear on the feed level but it actually only applies to the entries within that feed. Going back and reading my draft, I see that I screwed up and didn't indicate that p

So, you're really looking for entry-level, time-based invalidation, no? I guess the simplest way to do this would be to dereference the link and see if you get a 404/410; if you do, you know it's no longer good. That's not terribly efficient, but OTOH managing metadata in multiple places i

Dave: I think I see what you're getting at... correct me if I'm wrong. So I decide that my aggregator is going to look for unknown Simple Extensions in Atom feeds and display them as a table of name/value pairs at the bottom of every entry. And during the display process, I'm going to run a regex

The simple answer is that not everything I may want to reply too will have an ID I can reference. Suppose that what I'm responding to is an item in an RSS feed that does not contain a guid element? All I have to go off of is the URL of the RSS feed or the RSS item's link element... neither

I *really* don't want to get into a protracted debate that gets us going back and forth between atom:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"in-reply-to"] and thr:in-reply-to when either approach would work just as well as the other. The thr:in-reply-to tends to make the most sense to me at this point because of
