I am trying to use the "quick add" feature for Google Calendar to
parse an English description of the event.


 I am writing the code in Ruby, so I do not have access to this
function in the API.

This is the message to send the event (which apparently has the
problem).

<entry xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' xmlns='http://
www.w3.org/2005/Atom'>
  <category term='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#event'
scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind'/>
  <content type='text'>lunch with joe on friday</content>
  <quickadd xmlns:gCal='http://schemas.google.com/gCal/2005'
value='true'/>
  <gd:transparency value='http://schemas.google.com/g/
2005#event.opaque'/>
  <gd:eventStatus value='http://schemas.google.com/g/
2005#event.confirmed'/>
</entry>

As a result, it creates the event, but does not use the quick add
feature (the <quickadd> xml must be wrong).  See the result:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

Does anyone know the quick add flag for the XML post?  Thanks very
much,

Dustin
