I couldn't find the option to reopen this bug so i created a new report.
Also, i didn't get noticed of your reply. The same happened with some forum messages.
If i am monitoring this, i should be reciving notifications right?

I still get the same behaviuor.

This was the original bug report:
The browser should get the URL of the item but when I click over an item, the browser is sent the URL of the feed instead.

This happens only with atom feeds. If I change to an rss feed, JRSST works as expected.

Atom feeds may contain multiple <link> tags per item. I couldn't check the source yet but it seems JRSST sends the last item to the browser regardless if it is inside a ... block.

RSS files just work because they only have on link tag per item.

From RFC 4287:

4.2.11. The "atom:source" Element

If an atom:entry is copied from one feed into another feed, then the
source atom:feed's metadata (all child elements of atom:feed other
than the atom:entry elements) MAY be preserved within the copied
entry by adding an atom:source child element, if it is not already
present in the entry, and including some or all of the source feed's
Metadata elements as the atom:source element's children. Such
metadata SHOULD be preserved if the source atom:feed contains any of
the child elements atom:author, atom:contributor, atom:rights, or
atom:category and those child elements are not present in the source
atom:entry.

So, what I said previuosly is not entirely correct. We should check if the
link tag is inside a ... block anyway,
