No. The atom.entry.head conveys completely different information
then atom.feed.head. One should not supercede the other. Each has a role and
each can be useful simultaneously.
For instance, I might produce the following feed:
<feed>
<head><copyright>Second Feed Corp.</copyright></head>
<entry>
<head><copyright>Source Feed Inc.</copyright></head>
<copyright>Tom Bombadil</copyright>
...
</entry>
</feed>
The copyright for this feed, as a collection, is claimed by "Second
Feed Corp." but the feed contains an entry whose copyright was claimed by
"Tom Bombadil". Tom's entry had been extracted from a feed whose copyright
was claimed by "Source Feed Inc.". All three copyright claims are active,
valid, and "interesting" in at least some contexts.

I'm sure you won't be surprised to read that I actually do think
that I've thought this through... But, that clearly isn't being
communicated. I'd appreciate it very much if you could provide some specific
questions that you think need to be answered. My fear is that if I write
more, I will have written too much.
