  Bret and I met on Friday and agreed on the minimal changes needed to
support arbitrary formats in PubSubHubbub

straightforward just using HTTP Headers

Web Linking for hub and topic url and Date header for update date.


So I guess this would just monitor an entire resource and post the updated version to the subscriber whenever it changes, rather than dividing the resource into logical "items" and delivering them separately?

That seems like a fine fallback for non-stream-like resources like images but I do think it's useful to define a more granular stream format for JSON so that it can be used to deliver things like activity streams more efficiently.
