Previous Action Items

• Invite Thomas Cherry, Tyler Stevens and Mike Morahan (UMM) to next meeting (Doug)
• Finalize what is now the ESIP Best Practices document (Doug) File:ESIP OpenSearch Best Practices.docx
• Investigate Xlink solution for expanding descriptive qualities of atom:link (like the OpenDAP extension) (Doug)

Looking at the atom spec: 4.2.7. The "atom:link" Element

  The "atom:link" element defines a reference from an entry or feed to
  a Web resource.  This specification assigns no meaning to the content
  (if any) of this element.

  atomLink =
     element atom:link {
        atomCommonAttributes,
        attribute href { atomUri },
        attribute rel { atomNCName | atomUri }?,
        attribute type { atomMediaType }?,
        attribute hreflang { atomLanguageTag }?,
        attribute title { text }?,
        attribute length { text }?,
        undefinedContent
     }

Where undefinedContent is undefinedContent = (text|anyForeignElement)* Based on this is allowable to add a child to link as long as it is namespaced to something other than ATOM.
