I don't know that there's a pressing need for such a redesign, but were I to look into that, I'd likely actually prefer a format that doesn't require me to publish the same information twice, as is often the case today. Instead I'd look for annotation on HTML that could provide it with Atom semantics. It really wouldn't require much. -- Robin Berjon - http://berjon.com/ - @robinberjon
