That's what I was trying to do here:

- Description: A URI that refers to a feed document containing a set of the most recent entries in the feed. This URI is intended to be subscribed to to keep abreast of recent changes in the feed. When different from the URI of the document where it occurs, it indicates that its value should be used for this purpose in place of the current document's URI.

Any suggestions?

The idea being that if you were to come across an archived Atom document (however that might happen), the presence of this link would, (a) let you know that it was an archive document and thus shouldn't be subscribed to, and (b) provide you with a URL with which you could subscribe to the actual feed if you so chose.


Makes sense, but not self-evident. I would think that the usefulness of this thing would be improved by a few words of explanation for those who come upon it without knowing the history. -Tim
