And just to be clear, I understand the Atom spec of the categories document, and how categories can be added to an entry, be it on the server side (Entry.addCategory) or the client side (atom:category element).
I need to understand how it relates to URIs...

Could you provide expansion examples for base/:collection/:entry;categories, as defined in DefaultProvider. Question 2) I use AbstractEntityCollectionAdapter. Is there proper integration for categories support with this entity oriented adapter? Question 3) On a getEntries, I know how to fetch the parameters from the request and use them to fetch the entries. Assuming that getCategories is called, do I only have to retrieve the categories from the URL path and fetch the matching entries? Is the scheme used to specify the categories (which I don't know at the moment - see question 1) part of some Atom specifications? How does this compare with the GDATA path/-/category/category/... scheme? I have seen in the Abdera codebase how to add category info to a feed. That part is clearer.

I am using the DefaultProvider implementation, hence the RouteManager, which defines a route I have trouble interpreting. How would the URL to access a collection category look like? What is the contract of the AbstractCollectionAdapter with regard to category support (getCategories(RequestContext)). Thanks, Rémy -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG.
