Hi phil,

The "Nan" appearing on certain browsers is just a symptom of the underlying
issue. Browsers in different operating systems have different way of
detecting and setting the default locale. Some will use en-US which is
currently problematic but chrome might default to simply "en" in some case.
The workarround described should work. I.e you can manually force the locale
of the calendar api feed by using the "hl" url parameter. Using ?hl=en will
return a correct feed which will be read correctly by the javascript client
libraries used to extract the dates.

Cheers!
Nicolas
