I'm currently working on updating/fixing blam to 1.8.5/1.8.6 which
doesn't contain the Atom.NET.dll any more.  1.8.6 also dropped the
RSS.NET.dll, which means it will build entirely from source, see:

http://www.cmartin.tk/blam.html

Currently the issue with rawhide is getting blam to build against
the newest xulrunner, see:
