See, I have to build an internal representation for an entry or a feed inside the server. I have to build these from the incoming entries and from the storage to send them back to the client. I also have to provide transformation from Atom to RSS. Additionaly Atom allows extensions like the google calendar namespace elements. The GData client library has a nice API for map these feeds / entries to Objects to work with and it does the transformation already. The API is also extensible for other ATOM extensions to customize the server for other feed "types". So I would use the api to build the representation and transfomation. The project could also gain some benefit from gdata - api extensions in the future.

Simon, I just don't quite understand how you are going to use the Google Client API in the GData server.
