Atom 1.0 for SmartFeed in Bloglines

Bloglines recently announced much improved support for Atom 1.0 feeds. Therefore, at FeedBurner, we flipped the bit on the SmartFeed service so that Atom 1.0 feeds will be delivered as-is to Bloglines instead of being down-converted to Atom 0.3.

Very soon, we're going to be switching SmartFeed from the current "assume a reader doesn't support Atom 1.0 unless we have recorded otherwise" logic to the "assume a reader does support Atom 1.0 unless we have recorded otherwise". That might cause a few problems with some readers that we haven't identified, but we should be able to chase those down quickly.
