RSS Feed Updates

Stumble It!

I’ve updated my RSS 2.0 feed to include some additional information after reading this, which in turn links to this. I’ve also added <author> info to the <item>s, and <webmaster> and <managingEditor> info to the <channel>.

    This is the first comment written from within Syndirella. Looks like the comments feature is working!

    By the way, looks like your RSS feed does not correctly escape the angle brackets in item texts. Look at this item in Syndirella to see what I mean.

    Actually, my feed is fine. It appears that Syndirella is decoding the entities before it passes them to the HTML rendering engine. I’ll post a bug report.

    Okay, after posting the bug and reading yole’s response, I’ve decided to encode my RSS content after all. I’m still not convinced that it’s actually the correct thing to do, but it seems to be the practical thing.
