Description

I've noticed recently that RSS feeds to moodle.org forums that I monitor are failing in Safari 4 beta. The planet.moodle feed seems OK though.

eg for the Contributed modules and plugins forum feed, I now get the message:
"Safari can't open the page "feed://moodle.org/rss/file.php/5/24153/forum/27/rss.xml". The error is: "The feed could not be loaded because the content is not in a known feed format." (PubSub:2)"

Realising that this may be a consequence of using unsupported Safari beta I checked these feeds with the W3C validator http://validator.w3.org/feed/ and lo and behold: "Sorry. This feed does not validate." followed by 5 suggested fixes.

~~
just uninstalled Safari 4 beta but still get feed failures with good ol' 3.2.1. Non-Moodle.org feeds are ok. It never used to be this way
