Only the date is shown in the item title in the day
view of RSS 2.0 (and maybe other versions). If you
also displayed the time in the day view, it would be
more useful.

As a usage scenario, I syndicate all our office's
calendars via RSS to our local web portal. The titles
show like the following. As you can see, it's not very
informative without the time.
# Mon Aug 14 2006: Weekly memo due to staff
# Mon Aug 14 2006: Devotions (TBD)
# Mon Aug 14 2006: Break
# Mon Aug 14 2006: Alcoholics Victorious (Joe Milligan)
# Mon Aug 14 2006: Break
# Mon Aug 14 2006: ALC (am) or Work
# Mon Aug 14 2006: Break
# Mon Aug 14 2006: Lunch

Here is one of the relevant lines in the source code:
$rss_title = htmlspecialchars ("$dayofweek: $event_text");
