I've revised PaceProfile to make it more complete, as requested. http://www.intertwingly.net/wiki/pie/PaceProfile The biggest change from the previous approach is that cardinality of metadata elements is specified by those elements, in the form "When present, atom:title MUST occur exactly once." Profiles only constrain what metadata elements are required in the feed.
Do I understand it correctly that the profiles themselves still need to be discussed?
That's the purpose of this Pace. Are you asking something else?
Also, you can not mix profiles like you can in HTML 4.01? (Although there it is underdefined.)
That's my intention in this proposal. I'm amenable to allowing multiples, though, as mentioned in the notes.
I would also like to know what is meant exactly with metadata elements. Which elements does that include and which are excluded.
All of those that are children of atom:head and atom:entry are metadata.
