   Hi Pat,

   The HTTP 301 (Moved Permanently) response code can and should be used to get aggregators to automagically re-direct; from what I gather most support it and the others should be considered buggy.

   I notice that your existing atom.xml feed still returns 200:

   jsled@phoenix [~]$ curl --head  <a href="http://www.lightbody.net/~plightbo/atom.xml" rel="nofollow">http://www.lightbody.net/~plightbo/atom.xml</a>
   HTTP/1.1 200 OK
   Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2006 14:12:52 GMT
   Server: Apache/2.0.46 (Red Hat)
   

   Something like:

   Redirect permanent atom.xml <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/Blogbody" rel="nofollow">http://feeds.feedburner.com/Blogbody</a>
   

   in the .htaccess of ~plightbo/public_html should get apache to DTRT.

   Hmm, obviously, without the `Hmm, obviously, without the `<a href=”` noise. Your comment mumble added that on my behalf. :/
