Actually, I would go farther and say that an Atom feed for events should
look something like CalAtom (http://robubu.com/CalAtom/CalAtom.html),
which embeds iCalendar into Atom. If custom markup is used for
everything, there is no way that users would be able to transfer these
events between an Atom-enabled calendaring application and the custom
application.
