[georss] GeoAtom (split from Re: GeoRSS Location References)

[Mikel Maron]

This is a great timely discussion. I actually have a need for a location reference construct for a project right this very moment. 

Our feed will associate an annotation with a specified countries, and those country borders will be stored in the consuming application.
Whatever format we come up with is fine for me .. I slightly favor using atom:link, since it doesn't involve any new thing, just a definition of what it means in this context.

Another thing, seems like country borders are going to be widely needed. Wonder if we could think about a common resource for these, perhaps out of OpenStreetMap or Geonames.
