I wouldn't understand what really does mean the following: <link rel="replies" href="comments.html" type="text/html" thr:count="5" /> <link rel="replies" href="comments.atom" type="application/atom+xml" thr:count="10" /> Without the thr:count, I'd say that those two links are intended for client-side content negotiation, but given that the two thr:count values differ… would it mean that there have been 5 new comments since the text/html representation has been last updated? But what if there were a thr:when indicating the opposite? And Rob Sayre also pointed on his blog a potential problem on how to use such multiple values: "How do I display that in a client? Do I add up the numbers? Pick the highest? Do I pick the latest or the earliest time?". [http://www.franklinmint.fm/blog/archives/000721.html] I know what your answer is [http://www.snellspace.com/wp/?p=297] but I also think that these are entry properties, not really link properties (so I disagree with you on "First, The thr:count and thr:when properties are specific to the replies link upon which they appear." [http://www.snellspace.com/wp/?p=296]). -- Thomas Broyer
