That's what I originally did, but I have a rather strong preference to make a single syntax work in RSS and Atom. atom:link is (naturally) specific to Atom, and people will balk at using the atom namespace in RSS feeds.

That's not to say that every Atom extension should be usable in RSS, but I think this one is simple -- and valuable -- enough to do it; and, I don't see any technical benefit to using the link relation.

Cheers,

If that is right, and so fh:stateful is not needed, then would it not be simpler to
extend the link element in the following really simple way:

<link rel="http://purl.org/syndication/history/1.0"; type="application/atom+xml"
      href="http://example.org/2003/11/index.atom"; />

Just a thought.
