#486 closed defect (fixed)

Description

I get the following errors using 0.7.1.pre:

  • author must include an email address: <author>appel</author>
  • pubDate must be an RFC-822 date: <pubDate>to, 27 maj 2004 13:45:04 GMT</pubDate>
  • XML Parsing error: <unknown>:577:19: not well-formed (invalid token): <pubDate>s< 23 maj 2004 11:00:31 GMT</pubDate>

The date errors might be because the locale on my computer is set to swedish, I guess dates in swedish is not allowed in rss? The e-mail thing I'm not sure how to fix since one is not required to enter one when using trac.

Fixed in [803].

RSS feeds now validate properly on ​http://www.feedvalidator.org/ . The 'author' element in RSS 2.0 is really dumb. Possibly, we should incorporate ​dc: for metatada.
