Same here, Atom feeds were obviously the most logical place to start and would have the greatest short-term impact on the web as it stands but to have to reinvent the wheel for other formats is kinda ridiculous. Would be awesome to see PubSubHubbub become a more generic distribution framework and be marketed as such!
