html = """<div class="vcalendar"><div class="vevent">
 <a class="url" href="http://conferences.oreillynet.com/pub/w/40/program.html">
  http://conferences.oreillynet.com/pub/w/40/program.html
 </a>
 <span class="summary">Web 2.0 Conference</span>:
 <abbr class="dtstart" title="2005-10-05">October 5</abbr>-
 <abbr class="dtend" title="2005-10-07">7</abbr>,
 at the <span class="location">Argent Hotel, San Francisco, CA</span>
</div></div>"""

hcal = hCalendar(html)
for cal in hcal:
    for event in cal:
        print event.url
        print event.summary
        print event.dtstart
        print event.dtend
        print event.location
