Has anyone thought of creating (or "created"!) a tool to either:

   *    parse a page marked up with the hAtom microformat (which enables
        generation of an Atom feed from HTML, using pre-defined class
        names):

                <http://microformats.org/wiki/htaom>

        and rendering that data as a Simile timeline;

                <http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/> ?

        Here's a page marked up with hAtom which might make a suitable
        test case:

                <http://www.westmidlandbirdclub.com/belvide/latest>


or to

   *    generate a timeline from a page containing a set of events
        marked up with hCalendar microformats:

                <http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar>

        such as:

                <http://www.westmidlandbirdclub.com/diary/2007/11.htm>
