Q&A

Is hAtom intended to replace RSS or Atom

No, hAtom is not intended to replace RSS or Atom. While most weblogs and other websites do provide their latest articles in a structured fashion (via RSS and/or Atom feeds), most of them do not provide their older articles in a structured way. This is one of the problems that hAtom can solve.

Is there a way to hide to the entry author information

My client does not want to display their name after every post, but would like this to be valid. Can I hide the author info in an abbr tag or something?
