G'day,

In XEP-0277 I have two issues:

1) comments link

In section 3 comments are defined by addind a <link/> to a pubsub item atom payload (#3.1).

This node can be anywhere, and in the comment node/items, there is not link to the original item (#3.2).

The issue here is if we discover the comment node without knowing the original item, there is no way to associate both.

A consequence I can imagine is if the original item is deleted, and the comments is on an other service, there is no way for the comments pubsub service admin to know if the original item still exits, so he can't clean its database properly.

2) published/updated

the <published/> and <updated/> elements are given by the publisher, he can write anything he wants inside. I think that the server should enforce these data, or we will have the same issues as in email like mesages in the future (e.g. to appear first).

Cheers
Goffi
