Sorry, what I actually meant by 'interchangeable' is that an entry
element may contain 'alternate' and/or 'about' links, and not that they 

can be used to express the same meaning. The spec currently says:

    atom:entry elements MUST contain at least one atom:link element 
with
    a rel attribute value of "alternate".

So my initial thought was to change it to:

    atom:entry elements MUST contain at least one atom:link element 
with
    a rel attribute value of [either] "alternate" [or "about"].

But now I see that this clause should be removed altogether.
