Re: "Should we give Gemini page subscriptions a proper name?"
That is true. But isn't there functionality out there, which can subscribe to pages and monitors just the headings?
A Gemfeed could be the total of all YYYY-MM-DD links, depending on how you look at it.

Part of what makes a feed page is the author's intention to update it. I can imagine historical timeline pages that might have Y-M-D lines, but which are never intended to be updated. I really like the idea that they are just regular pages, but having a name for them might allow authors to better communicate their intention. ("Here is my gemfeed page" or "Here is a gemfeed page with my recipes") Just a thought.

Should we give Gemini page subscriptions a proper name? — There is no offical name for the Gemini page subscription specification. [gemini link] Some people call it gemsub or gmisub. I think it would be helpful, if the companion specification would mention a canonical name. If you want more options, put them in the comments, and I will update the poll.
