I don't believe its fair to do these kind of major changes and then not

we need a deeper separate discussion thread on this.

In the open source world, you would vote on a release tag, rather than
the state of 'trunk'...

We should create and support something that works with all feeds, both
RSS and Atom, in an interoperable manner.
