I atom:id-entify the main feed using an ISSN. (See below for example.) This number is unique to my publication and I use it one time per feed.

</feed>

But when it comes to atom archiving, it gets a little trickier…. Should I use the same ISSN as for my recent updates feed?

Yes, it would be appropriate to use it in both places. The atom:id is associated with a single "feed" which isn't the same thing and a "feed document". In other words, it's possible to have multiple documents that all represent the same "feed", and all of those documents would have the same atom:id.

In your case, you've got the recent updates document for the feed and the archive document(s) for the feed -- but both a tied to the same feed.
