This is not restricted to HTTP. It uses HTTP's cache age algorithms,
because they are very carefully designed and have proven effective.
But it can be used for any local copy in an Atom client.

Sorry, this is too late for consideration for the Atom core. Even if you 
had turned it in on time, I would give it a -1 for not being essential to the 
core for the Atom format. Atom will be distributed over many protocols, HTTP 
being one of them. Having said that, I think this would be an excellent 
extension, one that might keep the folks who don't understand HTTP scalability 
but feel free to talk about it anyway at bay.

This proposal uses HTTP caching algorithms, but does not require an
HTTP transport. Atom over other transports can use these algorithms.
