What tool? I am rather sure that this doesn't happen with the WeblogTool, as
there is a quoteXML call in the code. Actually all tools should allways
produce correct RSS feeds, as they all use the same infrastructure -
RSSFeedRendering.tmpl calls the getRSSItems method which produces RSS items
with quoted field values.

Can you give more details - like what RSS feed has this problem?
