Ah, you are talking about the feed description, not any item 
description. Important fact, as both fields are named "description".  
That's definitely a bug in PyDS. I am currently rewriting all the 
getRSSTitle and getRSSDescription definitions to use macros.quoteXML to 
quote their content. Should be in CVS, soon.
