Ohh, nice readability. Perhaps a few refinements:
A URI that points to the next in a series of Feed documents, each
representing a segment of the same feed. For example, in a
reverse- chronologically ordered series of Feed documents, the
'next' URI would point to the document next further in the past.
-1 because each of the feed documents may not represent a segment
of the same feed. That's one potential use case, but it's not the
only one.
+1 to Robert's version.
-3 to being that generic. Surely, even if we can only imagine one
method of paging through a single feed and thus aren't concerned
about conflict for use of the "next" link, "paging", if you can even
call it that (okay, so maybe you're not calling it that), between
feeds using the same link relation as paging within each of the feeds
is not just allowing for the possibility of conflicts, it's actively
inviting conflicts.
