As I understand the Web, the "REST" concepts that underpin HTTP are quite happy with their being multiple representations of the selfsame resource *at the time*. The state captured in the documents that fly around the Web can be one of several that are associated with a common abstract entity. I'm not sure how this fits with the "sliding window" vs "current state" views of Atom. I guess I've always seen feeds as just being documents that are about some other documents, and whose state and selection of document coverage / detail is naturally going to vary depending on the sort of site we're dealing with.
