Thanks again for working on this -- I'm getting around to trying it out.
I have a dumb first question: how do I create a Atom group? I wanted to
try it out with the US weather.gov feed for my state:
https://alerts.weather.gov/cap/wa.php?x=0

I tried with "a" in the *Server* buffer, "G m" in the *Group* buffer,
but I guess neither allow for prompting the user for a URL.

I also added

(nnatom "alerts.weather.gov/cap/wa.php?x=0)

to my `gnus-secondary-select-methods' variable, but it said "Server file
alerts.weather.gov/cap/wa.php?x=0 not readable or writable" when I
restarted Gnus. I guess because we're going straight to
`nnatom-open-server', which reads a local file, without ever fetching
the file. We'd have to hit `nnatom--parse-feed' to do that, but I don't
see how we arrive there without already having the server created.

What am I missing?
