Hi all,

I have added an updated patch to (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ROL-1822 
) as generated against the Roller trunk. It updates the export  
functionality in the following ways.

1. Fixes a bug related to replacing the base resource URL. Greedy vs.  
reluctant quantifiers in the regular expression.

2. Adds a new MT Import option that replaces all new lines with a  
space. I found that WordPress will often replace any newline with a  
"<br>" thus breaking the intended formatting of a post.

3. Adds an Atom export option using Abdera. This code is commented out  
and left in place merely for reference, in case Dave wants to go  
rework it for ROME.

4. Some code cleanup here and there.

This with the exception of the Roller 5.0 changes and the commenting  
out of the Atom option, represents what we are currently running on blogs.sun.com 
  (Roller 4.0.1+).

Regards,
