I'm with Mark in that people using the web should *use* the web, and think about Last-Modified, If-Modified-Since and Expires, or ETag, If-None-Match and Cache-Control.
While I expect many on this list will understand the relationship between these HTTP headers and the vocabulary for update properties Erik defined, it'd be helpful for someone to establish a mapping between these or point to a fairly non-technical introduction to these HTTP headers.
Erik: Are there update properties that a feed publisher might understand that are not covered by Expires/Cache-Control?
