No. An ATOM feed is a way to publish the rendered HTML content of tiddlers
such that it can be read by ATOM feedreaders (eg feedly.com).

So it's really a way of bridging out of the world of TW into conventional
blogging infrastructure.

(sounds dangerous) or how are things actually expressed/manifested?

This sounds like the federation ideas we've been discussing in recent
hangouts. Doing it  would be effectively making TW be a consumer of ATOM
feeds, rather than a publisher, as here. We'd also need to extend/replace
the ATOM file format with something that allows raw tiddlers to be
published.

Best wishes

Jeremy.
