Atom 0.2 Feed Available »

Thanks to this entry from Mark Pilgrim, I now have a feed available based on the Atom 0.2 snapshot. I'm currently not taking advantage of the multipart/alternative feature, but I can see how it may be useful, and may add that in the future.

I made a few changes to the template supplied by Mark.

Notably, I removed the entry-level item created, as I'm not using the LastModified plugin from Staggernation (apparently no longer available). I am, however, using the DaylightOrStandard plugin to get my time zone offset correct on the entry-level item issued. I like it better than using <$MTBlogTimezone$>, which will not consider daylight saving time.

I also took out the author-level homepage item, as it's the same as that of the blog itself and therefore it felt redundant. If I ever get to setting up a homepage that's not the same as my blog, I'll probably put it back.

If you'd like to use my template, feel free.

Update: This feed no longer validates, as draft 0.2 is no longer valid.
