Comment

The Attribute: type="application/Atom+xml" is required. If this Attribute is part of the link-tag the link does not work in the Internet Explorer! The examples for INSPIRE-Atom-Feed contain the type-Attribute in the link-tag, too. And also it does not work in IE. That not the sense of interoperability. If the type-Attribute will delete the link work in the IE.

Proposed Change

Cancel the test Attribute type in the link-tag and Change the requirement.

On the other hand, the type attribute is important to enable selecting the desired representation.

This is a general decision that the MIG needs to take on a case by case basis (which software is important enough to change requirements because the software does not implement a specification properly).

This would also require a change in the Technical Guidelines.
