http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-brown-versioning-link-relations-07.txt is 
something that is more recent and seems to cover similar use cases, even 
though it's using only link relations instead of a mix of elements and 
link relations. the latest version of that is also expired (but not 
nearly as old as draft-snell-atompub-revision), but now that RFC 5988 is 
published, maybe a new version will be published soon?

and as a shameless piece of self-advertising, on 
http://dret.typepad.com/dretblog/atom-landscape.html i try to keep track 
of all those things. i just added draft-snell-atompub-revision to it, 
and draft-brown-versioning-link-relations was on there already. any 
feedback regarding this page is highly welcome!

thanks and kind regards,
