What about making the <article> an item and using a pre-defined itemprop on the <time>? About the use case itself: Is there implementor interest in implementing the consumption of HTML documents that aren't under the control of the implementor as feeds by mapping the documents to Atom semantics per the rules in the spec? (I, for one, have some severely legacy software that runs as a cron job and generated by blog feed from HTML files, but the process requires no spec, since the software is sensitive to conventions I enforce on myself, so there's no need for interop with anyone else's conventions.) -- Henri Sivonen hsivonen@iki.fi http://hsivonen.iki.fi/
