http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=9051 --- Comment #6 from Mark Pilgrim <mark@diveintomark.org> 2010-03-31 21:40:03 --- The original proposal for rel=alternate for RSS feeds was all about home pages (and other landing pages that might reasonably have their own "alternate" forms, like a page that had full or partial content from all the blog posts in a specific category and linked to a category-specific feed that mirrored that landing page in a specific feed format). The RFC I wrote for rel=alternate for Atom feeds (long since expired) was all about home pages and other landing pages. It intentionally did NOT mention the case of individual blog post pointing to a "main" feed for the site that might not even contain the blog post in question (if it was too old and/or the feed was too short). In the meantime, the world decided to put rel=alternate links on every single fracking web page, ever. I don't particularly care how you phrase it, but the HTML5 spec needs to acknowledge this fact. It will be the first attempt to ever do so. Good luck with that. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.Received on Wednesday, 31 March 2010 21:40:04 GMT
