Often times the use of MAY is advisory to the producer. This is one of those cases: if you are expecting mono spaced fonts, you might want to consider using either HTML or XHTML and making the markup explicit.
Ok, I'll withdraw that request.
>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.
I realize that you indicate that you intend to write a Pace on this. Just be aware that earlier drafts of Atom supported multiple content, and a lot of people seemed very motivated to eliminate this.
Are your requirements related to Atom being used for syndication or as a protocol?
As a data format for content publication, so I guess it leans closer to syndication. I'll have to think about it more given Tim and Robert's objection (arguably what I'm looking for counts as a corner-case).
cheers Bill
