An empty <atom:author> could be provided by the algorithm, though this by itself is not useful. <link rel="author" could be used to add an <atom:url> or <atom:email> to the <atom:author>. That said, the weak semantics of rel="author" become a slight problem here. If there are multiple rel="author" links, does that indicate multiple authors, or multiple links for the same author, or even several authors each with several links? -- Toby A Inkster <mailto:mail@tobyinkster.co.uk> <http://tobyinkster.co.uk>
