Looking at the spec and the output from the java rest / jsonrest there
are some discrepancies (thats known and to be expected in its self)
but i noticed that both the java atom implementations include all the
empty entries, while the spec insinuates this shouldn't be the case.
Purely from an efficiency / bandwidth point of view, leaving out the
empty entries makes more sense, but i don't know if this has any
implications for the atom correctness?
Also neither of the 2 has the correct <person ... tag, and the abdera
version includes an implementingClass field it seems?
I'll follow the spec for now, but if that's the wrong path please
shout out asap :)
