Sam Ruby, Mr. RSS, pointed out that WordPress 2.3 'dexter' has added "full atom 1.0 support, including the publishing protocol" which is a major accomplishment, trust me. We added Atom 1.0/APP support to Habari in November 2006 and it was a laborious task.

The spec is an ever shifting landscape and worse still, there aren't many platforms that implement the protocol correctly. One thing that I noticed in Mr. Ruby's article was that he played some kind of role in the WP implementation. We (being Habari) would love to have some recommendations on our Atom implementation. We are not silly enough to think we have it nailed perfectly.

So Mr. Ruby, you have the time to lend a hand to a young and impressionable open source project?
