Editorial comments. You could add - http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-its-20070403/#directionality as informative references, in Section 5.2 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-snell-atompub-bidi-06#section-5.2 - Why create atom:dir instead of re-use its:dir (in a Rationale section). - What are the differences between atom:dir and its:dir .

There's no reason to introduce the added complexity of ITS here. I recognize that it's not a lot of added complexity, but ITS would add the need to support another new namespace and new MUST-level requirements that simply aren't needed. Further, Atom bidi does not need the rlo and lro values to indicate bidi overrides and ITS does not provide a means of explicitly indicating that no base directionality has been set (e.g. dir="") which is an important case for feeds aggregating content from multiple sources.
