Description

On the page http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/syndication/, in the "Example Usage" of an Atom1Feed, there's a spurious comma at the end of the block included below. This results in f being a tuple containing a reference to an Atom1Feed instance, when f should simply be a copy of that reference. (I'm a little bit new to Python, so apologies if I'm misusing the terminology)

>>> f = feedgenerator.Atom1Feed(
...     title=u"My Weblog",
...     link=u"http://www.example.com/",
...     description=u"In which I write about what I ate today.",
...     language=u"en"),

As such, the attempt to call "f.add_item(....)" fails. Solution: remove spurious comma.
