I was looking into this, but then found a solution using xsltproc, which works perfectly for me and thus I didn't saw any need to proceed further. I already linked to it, but here's the setup in a nutshell: * apt-get install xsltproc * cd $HOME ; wget http://atom.geekhood.net/atom2rss.xsl Put the following into your .emacs: (require 'mm-url) (defadvice mm-url-insert (after DE-convert-atom-to-rss () ) "Converts atom to RSS by calling xsltproc." (when (re-search-forward "xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/.*/Atom\"" nil t) (message "Converting Atom to RSS... ") (goto-char (point-min)) (call-process-region (point-min) (point-max) "xsltproc" t t nil (expand-file-name "~/atom2rss.xsl") "-") (goto-char (point-min)) (message "Converting Atom to RSS... done"))) (ad-activate 'mm-url-insert) -David
