The trick is that Atom already offers a couple of things which are not standardized yet in XMPP, like categories, or which are not easy to obtain like modification date. And XEP-0277 allows to easily link one or several comment nodes. This could be done entirely in XMPP alone, but it is actually not possible, and re-using existing specification sounds like a good idea instead of re- inventing the wheel. If you remember I've made a talk about it in XMPP summit 2 years ago, with a demo of the format and a blog engine. This is a major subject for at least 2 projects (SàT and Movim, Jappix being unmaintained today, and I'm not a sure about Live Jabber), and I hope to see others coming in the future, so it would be nice to track some interest on this subject, as we don't have the resources to restart everything from scratch in X years.
