Re: comments on Atom 0.2
While upgrading my feed to Atom 0.2, I came across two minor issues with
the <author> element:
1. <name>: Are there any specific requirements for entries that have been
submitted anonymously? Since <author/> is required, I simply stuck
"Anonymous" in there for now.
2. <email>: With the well-known problem of spam, I'm reluctant to publish
my email address this way. However, a way to contact the author would be
useful in some circumstances.
Would it make sense to allow a URI here (for a contact form)? Or is this
something the <url> element should provide (either directly or
indirectly, by pointing to the author's home page)?
bye, Dirk
