RSS feed working Atom is broken now

RSS feed started to work all of a sudden. It actually started to work as soon as I posted that it’s broken, but I wanted to verify that it works before I said anything about it. Atom feed on the other hand is not working correctly. All posts are present, but it reports invalid feed modification date. A lot of aggregators use "modified" field to see if it’s worth putting more strain on the server to get the feed. Atom sets modified date from the first post, not the last and as the result, some aggregators might not download the feed. RSS doesn’t appear to suffer from this problem and it’s best to subscribe to RSS feed now…

Because of all these problems I can’t wait for the next version of CS to come out. I feel bad that I’m spending the time to write posts on this blog, but that readers might have troubles reading it. On the brighter side, CS 1.1 RC1 is out. It probably does fix these problems, but remembering how many problems 1.0 release had I think it’s better to wait for the 1.1 release.

P.S. Here's the link to the original post on CS forum describing the feeds problem: http://communityserver.org/forums/479463/ShowPost.aspx

[Edit] RSS feed problem remains. CS puts posts in bulks in RSS, so RSS is usually lagging behind with the posts.
