Transformr does not require the &tidy=no switch any more you can just use

http://transformr.co.uk/rss2/http://microformats.org/

Yes it is (open source) you can either download directly from Transformr

http://transformr.co.uk/xsl/hAtom2RSS2.xsl

Or you can down load the entire source code of Transformr from

http://transformr.googlecode.com/files/transformr-0.5.zip
