No surprise I guess, but I am a huge +1. Lock this spec down and ship it. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of James M Snell Sent: Monday, May 15, 2006 3:15 PM To: atom-syntax Subject: Feed Thread in Last Call Hey all, I'm happy to announce that the Feed Thread extension (draft -10) [1] has entered Last Call. [2] The thr:count and thr:when extension attributes are back in Draft -10 following the recent on-list discussion and post by Tim Bray affirming that the atom:link element is indeed extensible. I fully recognize that not everyone on list agrees with this approach, but after trying to propertly implement alternatives, re-reading RFC4287 and surveying folks who I know have already done the work necessary to implement Feed Thread, I believe the decision to keep thr:when and thr:count as attributes is the right decision. At this point, Feed Thread support has been deployed in Friendster, Typepad, and MovableType. I have also added Feed Thread support to my Wordpress and Roller blog templates. IBM has plans to ship at least one product with Feed Thread support in the not too distant future (our Atom Publishing Protocol interop/test endpoint currently contains support for Feed Thread). If you do or do not want to see Feed Thread move forward as a Proposed Standard, now is the time to step up and make your case. :-) - James [1]http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-snell-atompub-feed-thread-1 0.txt [2]https://datatracker.ietf.org/public/pidtracker.cgi?command=view_id&dT ag=13577&rfc_flag=0
