I received a nice email from a person asking if I had updated the ATOM support I welded into the Aggregator (version 1) for the latest release of Drupal (4.6.6). I wanted to say "Thanks" to the person (Tom) for contacting me and also to let him know the response I sent got eaten by some email forwarding rules on his end.

Since Tom seemed to enjoy the functionality and the fix is quite simple I have patched the 4.6.6 Aggregator (version 1) to support ATOM feeds for those that do not wish to move to Aggregator2. I am confident this works with 4.6.5 as well since there are no differences between the 4.6.5 and 4.6.6 Aggregator (version 1) releases.

I have again gone with a drag and drop replacement method so if you grab the attached file below in your modules directory, overwriting your current Aggregator.module (that you make a back up of first!).

You can now subscribe to Atom feeds as you would subscribe to any RSS/RDF feed in Drupal!

Note: if you download the file and it is named aggregator.module.html then rename it to aggregator.module before copying into your modules folder.
