Actually dual magpie/carp support is on my todo list. I know with the paid version of carp (which I have), there's now atom support. I paid for it ages ago and they keep sending me updates.
As far as the MagPie conflict goes - I haven't experienced it myself just yet, but I'll see what happens when I get into it. I'm sure there's
something out there that will support atom.
I'll get going on this this week. I'm kind of stumped on my other project right now

, so this might provide enough of a break to get my brain working properly again.
