So as an implementor who is mapping APP and Atom onto a pre-existing relational data model, I would have to scan every entry in every request for any elements and attributes my implementation is incapable of storing rather than just looking for the bits and pieces I do understand and am capable of handling, effectively rendering Atom's Must-Ignore extension semantics absolutely useless to me as a server developer and consuming additional server resources for what reason again?
Exactly, this is what I meant when I said that this made APP a must-understand protocol. -joe -- Joe Gregorio http://bitworking.org
