Hi Pete,
The 'basic' project strictly adheres to the Atom format, without any
of the Google Data extensions.
On top of that, since everything in the US Holidays calendar is
recurring, you won't see any gd:when elements in the feed normally.
To fix this, you need to do two things:
1. Change the projection from 'basic' to 'full' to get the Google Data
extensions.
2. Add 'singleevents=true' as a query parameter to expand recurring events.
This means the URL you want to use should be:
http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/usa__en%40holiday.calendar.google.com/public/full?singleevents=true
