For the most part yes.
Regarding the use of a link versus foo:profile, I really have no
preference one way or the other. The profile reference should be a
dereferencable link to a profile document that describes the profile
but, for the most part, clients will likely only rarely ever dereference
it (using the href more as an identifier). Strictly speaking,
dereferenceable profile links should probably use the atom:link element
but there is no hard requirement that says a profile element wouldn't
also work.
Using atom:link strikes me as tag abuse [1]. But that's what
microformats tend to do (use presentational markup for data).
Agreed. So what's a better solution? Like I said, I really have no
preference one way or the other.
