It's not fixed, it's just that with your latest change EXP, the current output happens to be valid, where as before it would never be.

[Edit: Oh look, is the feed not working any more?

Sorry

This feed does not validate.

which was not the point of this post anyway.
in fact, due to a missing module import, the feed was not being generated. That has been fixed.

The other stuff were just some Q&D hacks I made while fixing the real problem. I am well aware that there may be some content which isn't being filtered correctly by the current code.
Btw. which validator service are you using?
W3C Validator

Just because the feed happens to be valid again, it doesn't mean it's fixed. Only need to add another file to the test anime to break it again, and if you monkey patch that there are still a good few more well-formedness holes, before even moving on to the schema validity.

Doing this properly, once, is less effort than fucking around with it repeatedly.
