Looking at these issues, I see that you are considering implementing the atom protocol. I've done that using restlet in my atomojo project (see http://code.google.com/p/atomojo ). I wonder if there is some way to refactor what I have to provide a generalized atom protocol handler that would work for my specific atomojo project and any other restlet-based application that wants to use the atom protocol. Currently, I support a hierarchical version of atom feeds. That is all implemented via the ProtocolByPathFinder class. Also, the atom protocol doesn't support creation of feeds. Several app implementors have adopted the idea that a post of a feed document to a uri (path) creates a feed. I have that support as well. The biggest issue in implementing the atom protocol is the storage and retrieval of feeds. I'm using eXist to store the XML and Derby to store relational metadata about them. That would have to be abstracted out in a restlet-provided implementation. --Alex Milowski
