Yeah, I've been thinking a bit about that. The only thing that was holding me back was that atom:published is optional and only appears on atom:entry. I wanted the extension to be able to work on the feed level also. That said, the spec could be updated to say that IF the published date is

Yeah, that kind of tears it for me; we could profile it, but I'm less than convinced that the potential reuse is worth it (esp. when it's so trivial to map age:expires into dcterms:valid). +1 to age:expires. On 09/10/2005, at 10:21 AM, Phil Ringnalda wrote: Mark Nottingham wrote: I'

Funny you should say that. When you told me it was part of Atom 0.3 I also thought to myself that I should have checked that before posting. Technically you were correct. Version 0.3 of the syndication format doesn't mention next and prev explicitly, but it does say (in section 3.4.1) that th
