I have been working on a new site which I intend to replace my current site with in the coming weeks. The new one is just inside a folder under my domain-name. When I replace the main site with the new one, will RSS subscriptions to my site remain intact? i.e. anyone who is subscribed to a feed from my site, will they continue to receive it, assuming the new site has been placed into the same directory the old one lived in?

domainname.com/feed/
remains the same you should be fine.
Subscribers will have a bit of a mess for a day in their feed but it should just clear itself up once you have posts coming through the new version of the site.
A good idea is to try something like google's feed burner as a proxy in between an end user and your actual feed, sometimes makes this kind of thing more smooth.
