Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Invalid RSS feed format for Wireshark newsgroups.
Hi.
I don't know where to report this so I'll try here. :-)
Wireshark's mailing list RSS feeds (e.g.
http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-announce.rss) seem to have an
invalid <guid> XML element value (for each RSS item).
In an element such as:
<guid isPermaLink="true">XXX</guid>
XXX must be a valid link that can be used by a web browser to access
the item's data.
Wireshark's RSS feeds have some date/time value there:
<item>
<title>[Wireshark-announce] Wireshark 1.2.13 is now
available</title>
<link>
http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-announce/201011/msg00001.html</link>
<guid isPermaLink="true">Fri, 19 Nov 2010 20:24:12 GMT</guid>
<pubDate>Fri, 19 Nov 2010 20:24:12 GMT</pubDate>
</item>
Which should, by my guess, read:
<item>
<title>[Wireshark-announce] Wireshark 1.2.13 is now
available</title>
<link>
http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-announce/201011/msg00001.html</link>
<guid
isPermaLink="true">http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-announce/201011/msg00001.html</guid>
<pubDate>Fri, 19 Nov 2010 20:24:12 GMT</pubDate>
</item>
With this incorrect formatting such RSS feeds can not be read using
the Thunderbird mail client (related Thunderbird bug report:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=624089).
Hope this helps.
