	Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can get Atom limited by date. It's not 
something that's directly in the UI, but you can just add a few URL 
parameters that are probably documented somewhere that I could look up 
for you some time, if you'd like. (Or you could ask in #bzr on FreeNode 
if the loggerhead devs are around when you ask--beuno is the main one, I 
think.)

	I note you added bzr support recently--perhaps basing it on the 
bzr-loom plugin would make things easier in that department.
