Obasanjo: Questions Simmons' standing as a client developer: http:// www.imc.org/atom-protocol/mail-archive/msg01164.html

Disagree. Dare characterized Simmons' post as a bunch of feature requests... which it was. Some of them are extremely geeky, like Markdown and WikiWords (no standard syntax for that, btw), and a service like MSN Spaces would gain little from implementing them. Enabling Trackback for a free service like MSN Spaces would be sort of like having an open relay, no? That leaves "comments" and "draft".

Suggestion: future proposals should focus on the mechanism first, and leave the fields for later.
