Proving that the Atom folks aren't the only ones willing to discuss how many angels can dance on the head of a pin, there's an argument on the RSS Aggregators mailing list over enclosures. Supposedly, the spec states that there can be only one enclosure per item. Interestingly enough, the spec is silent on this matter (although it implies that you can have multiple title/description elements - go figure). In the wild, people are already using multiple enclosures in single items - which means that the horse has already left the barn. As per usual, the argument is now devolving into a "but you should follow the spec" hand waving exercise.
