2006/7/4, Alex Milowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

When a client does a PUT on the link relation href for 'edit-media' on
a media entry, should the 'updated' value in the corresponding atom
entry change?

It depends on the server and eventually its configuration.

For example, a server could detect whether it's a "minor update" (i.e.
only small, sparsed chunks of text have changed, it's likely to be the
result of a spellcheck; on an image, only small, sparsed chunks of
pixels have changed, or only some colors within the palette have
changed, etc.) and decide the atom:updated should not change.

But in most cases –particularly if it does not check for "minor
updates"–, yes, the server will (should?) update the atom:updated
value.

That's what leads me to think that the "media link entry" and "media
resource" are just different _representations_ the very same resource.
