Atom 1.0
It’s cooked and ready to serve. There are a couple of IETF process things to do, but this draft is essentially Atom 1.0. Now would be a good time for implementors to roll up their sleeves and go to work.

- and it really does look close to completion.
New draft spec: The Atom Publishing Protocol (Basic).
New draft available of the Protocol formerly known as the Atom API: draft-ietf-atompub-protocol-03.txt Joe Gregorio (editor, along with Robert Sayre) also has xml version and diffs from the previous draft.
Collections are in:
An Atom collection is a set of items all of the same type ("members" of the collection), where the "type" may be, for example: Atom entry, category, template, "simple resource", or any other classification of web resource.
Doesn't look like the protocol's going to be finished this month...
draft-ietf-atompub-format-05
HTML version, diffs etc available along with previous drafts.
Robert Sayre's kindly posted the current working draft of the format spec, draft-ietf-atompub-format-04 (plus colourful diffs). It's up-to-date with respect to all normative decisions.
Mighty handy, especially considering there's a deadline for (RDFish) extensibility of Monday January 17th.
Upcoming goals/milestones listed in the Working Group charter:Tim Bray has proposed that the format might be finished, giving further exlpanation on his blog. The response on-list to this proposal certainly wasn't overwhelming approval, but consensus does seem to suggest that the missing pieces are few and that the end is very much in sight.
