OK, we have two errors to balance here. One of them is the text we
currently have, which creates problems for republishers. The other is
detailed in Sam's "Clone Wars" post:

We could go with Graham's suggestion. We could also rework the
inheritance/considered-to-apply/attribution text more generally, to
include atom:source more explicitly. Is there anything else we can do 
that would license the validator to flag the Yahoo feed in Sam's post,
but give  PubSub et al. a little more room to breath?
