    module AtomFeedHelper
      # Adds easy defaults to writing Atom feeds with the Builder template engine (this does not work on ERb or any other
      # template languages).
      #
      # Full usage example:
      #
      #   config/routes.rb:
      #     Basecamp::Application.routes.draw do
      #       resources :posts
      #       root :to => "posts#index"
      #     end
      #
      #   app/controllers/posts_controller.rb:
      #     class PostsController < ApplicationController::Base
      #       # GET /posts.html
      #       # GET /posts.atom
      #       def index
      #         @posts = Post.find(:all)
      #
      #         respond_to do |format|
      #           format.html
      #           format.atom
      #         end
      #       end
      #     end
      #
      #   app/views/posts/index.atom.builder:
      #     atom_feed do |feed|
      #       feed.title("My great blog!")
      #       feed.updated(@posts.first.created_at)
      #
      #       for post in @posts
      #         feed.entry(post) do |entry|
      #           entry.title(post.title)
      #           entry.content(post.body, :type => 'html')
      #
      #           entry.author do |author|
      #             author.name("DHH")
      #           end
      #         end
      #       end
      #     end
      #
      # The options for atom_feed are:
      #
      # * <tt>:language</tt>: Defaults to "en-US".
      # * <tt>:root_url</tt>: The HTML alternative that this feed is doubling for. Defaults to / on the current host.
      # * <tt>:url</tt>: The URL for this feed. Defaults to the current URL.
      # * <tt>:id</tt>: The id for this feed. Defaults to "tag:#{request.host},#{options[:schema_date]}:#{request.request_uri.split(".")[0]}"
      # * <tt>:schema_date</tt>: The date at which the tag scheme for the feed was first used. A good default is the year you
      #   created the feed. See http://feedvalidator.org/docs/error/InvalidTAG.html for more information. If not specified,
      #   2005 is used (as an "I don't care" value).
      # * <tt>:instruct</tt>: Hash of XML processing instructions in the form {target => {attribute => value, }} or {target => [{attribute => value, }, ]}
      #
      # Other namespaces can be added to the root element:
      #
      #   app/views/posts/index.atom.builder:
      #     atom_feed({'xmlns:app' => 'http://www.w3.org/2007/app',
      #         'xmlns:openSearch' => 'http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/'}) do |feed|
      #       feed.title("My great blog!")
      #       feed.updated((@posts.first.created_at))
      #       feed.tag!(openSearch:totalResults, 10)
      #
      #       for post in @posts
      #         feed.entry(post) do |entry|
      #           entry.title(post.title)
      #           entry.content(post.body, :type => 'html')
      #           entry.tag!('app:edited', Time.now)
