Something that has been niggling at me for a while...

I've long assumed that the collection feeds used by APP will generally NOT be the feeds the public subscribes to (at least in the common scenario of a blog).

The mental model I've been assuming in developing Demokritos is that the collection feeds are just for use by APP clients and each Atom server will have some separate mechanism for configuring what feeds are published more generally.

So, for example, a collection feed for a blog might only be visible to me and might contain summaries and out-of-line content for use only by my APP client. Quite separate from this, I can configure a publicly available full-content feed, summary-only feed, categories feeds, author-specific feeds, etc.

Is this what other people are thinking as the common practice for APP- powered blogs?
