was the last paragraph of the email. The <feed> element was necessary to make the xml validate, but I have tried it without it as well (and without the <?xml> tag too, so it was exactly the same as the example) but none of that worked. The addition of a <feed> tag certainly doesn't make it the same xml as a new event though. In fact, the example for creating a new event ALSO leaves off the <feed> tag, so I fail to see how you make that association. Now can anyone give me an actual answer to my query? Preferably someone who's given more than a cursory glance at the original mail? Or even someone who understands the API?
