proposal: I would like this loosened to zero or more (a Pace is forthcoming). I have use cases to ship content about in Irish and English form - Zero or One means I need a private content model to support that.
-1. This has been beaten to death.
Agree. -1. Bill needs a private content model. Removing the content model from Atom will not fix that. I suggest something like "text/bill+xml". Making general-purpose feeds available where one consumer will only ever use half of the content is bad practice. Use two resources. If we were looking for a way to make the bandwidth problem much, much worse, this would be one way.
