hatom sample - opinion?

I've been tasked with converting some of our content with
microformats. I've already successfully worked with hCard to
my
satisfaction, but now I'm attempting a hAtom entry. I'm
still new to
this, but I would like your opinion of the following
conversion for
our Guide Note located here: http://www.mah
alo.com/2007_Energy_Bill


<div class="hentry" title="Energy
Bill">
    <div><strong><abbr class="published
updated"
title="2007-12-04T00:00:00-08:00">December 04,
2007</abbr></strong></div>
     <div id="hcard-Associated-Press"
class="vcard">
        <span class="fn n">Associated
Press</span>
    </div>
    <div>WASHINGTON, D.C.</div>
     <div class="entry-content">Congress is
set to consider an
<strong>Energy Bill</strong> called the Energy
Independence and
Security Act of 2007. The act's stated purpose is
...</div>
 </div>


I feel it has all the required elements of an hatom, but I'm
wondering
if this is properly formatted. Specifically for denoting the
title of
the article, which I put in the initial hentry div.

thanks in advance!

Hi Suzy,

Here's how I would suggest doing this:

<div class="hentry">
   <h2
class="entry-title">EnergyBill</h2>
    <div><strong><abbr class="published
updated"
title="2007-12-04T00:00:00-08:00">December 04,
2007</abbr></strong></div>
     <div id="hcard-Associated-Press"
class="vcard">
        <div class="fn org">Associated
Press</div>
       <div class="adr"><span
class="locality">WASHINGTON</span>,  
<abbr class="region" title="District of
Columbia">D.C.</span></div>
    </div>
     <div class="entry-content">Congress is
set to consider an
<strong>Energy Bill</strong> called the Energy
Independence and
Security Act of 2007. The act's stated purpose is
...</div>
</div>

What I changed:

- Moved the title from a title attribute (I don't believe
that means  
what you're trying to say) to an element with
class="entry-title"
- Changed class="fn n" to class="fn
org", because it's an organization
- Wrapped class="adr" around the address
information for the hCard,  
and moved that within the hCard

If any of this doesn't make sense, please let us know.

Peace,
Scott
