385 <p><code>iffy:recent</code> is a <em>curation type</em>, a description of how the feed is curated relative to the body of work a subset of which it presents.</p>
386 <p>Curation type <code>iffy:recent</code> signifies that a subset consisting of the most work is represented by <code>item</code> elements in this feed.</p>
387 <p>(Curations of logically of type recent represent the most common use-case for RSS, although most feeds do not yet annotate themselves as such.)</p>
388 <p><code>iffy:recent</code> has three attributes:</p>
389 <ul>
390 <li>
391 <p><code>last</code> — When the attribute <code>last="<positive-integer-value-n>"</code> is defined, the feed displays a subset of the most recent <code>n</code> items, if there are at least <code>n</code> items in the unabridged body of work.</p></li>
392 <li>
393 <p><code>since</code> — When the attribute <code>since="<timestamp>"</code> is defined, all elements more recent than the given timestamp are represented as items in this feed. Timestamps may de defined as <a href="https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc4287#section-3.3">atom "date constructs"</a> OR in the format expected for <a href="https://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification"><code>pubDate</code> in standard RSS</a>.</p></li>
394 <li>
395 <p><code>operation</code> — Values must be one of <code>and</code> or <code>or</code>. Determines whether, if both <code>last</code> and <code>since</code> are set, items must be more recent than the <code>since</code> timestamp AND among the most recent <code>n</code> defined by <code>last</code>, or whether all items more recent than the <code>since</code> timestamp OR among the most recent <code>n</code> defined by <code>last</code> are included. If no <code>operation</code> is set, and both <code>last</code> and <code>since</code> are set, then <code>operation</code> should be presumed to default to <code>and</code>.</p></li>
