The only issue I see with the solution you propose, is that to request an image transformed through a given template, a client needs to do two requests; one to retrieve the URI template for the image, then one to the result URI after transforming the URI template.Hmm, doesn't the client retrieve the image entry before anyway? E.g. when the feed is retrieved?
Well, the feeds won't really be much used in the web client, as far as I can tell. You'd have an administration client that will use AtomPub and the exposed feeds rather extensively, but the web clients will mostly just GET the images and present them within HTML pages.
What I mean is that the client would need to learn about the existence of the image in the first place and you can of course include the link temaplte in the feed's enries, too.
Yea, you're right. -- Asbjørn Ulsberg -=|=- asbjorn@xxxxxxxxxx «He's a loathsome offensive brute, yet I can't look away»
