5. Is the issue of whether a feed is incremental or not (the

element) relevant to this proposal?
non-incremental feeds wouldn't be paged, by definition, would they?
This has been debated. There have been those who have expressed an
interest in having next and prev links traverse an archive of old
non-incremental feeds. Say you have a feed with the top 10 books for
this month. The next link (or prev link, depending on your preference)
would point to the archive document with the top 10 books from last month.
I think that Mark's concerns were that readers/aggregators generally
keep a local history of the feeds they're subscribed to.
fh:incremental=no would explicitly tell them not to do so.
