Projects also have a 'type' which can be used to configure the tabs  
in the project application. So you can simply add a new project type  
'blog' which appears in its own tab.

Well, adding ATOM for reading (RSS style) should be almost trivial.  
Just like it works now with RSS.

I was referring to edit-type applications only. RSS already works.

   .../Projects/ABC/Notes/rss
and
   .../Projects/ABC/Documents/rss

should also work. With content. Which might be quite useful, already.

I also like the Projects/rss to see what new projects people create.
