Does the following text (in the 'Atom' subsection of the Gnus manual)
not suffice?

  The ‘nnatom’ back end allows you to add HTTP or local Atom feeds as
  Gnus servers (with a single group), as you would with any other method,
  by supplying the location of the feed as the server address.  Note,
  however, that the server address shouldn't be prefixed with <http://> or
  <https://>.

    > Do you have push access to the Emacs repo?

I do not.
