  Hi good syndication peoples

you ll remember content wire, we started off about 5 years ago and several =
of you helped us pull our rss feeds together

this happened in a variety of fashions, from spiders scraping html and conv=
erting to rss, to various other types of feed burners and news aggregators =
that you guys have been working on



a couple of years later our software supplier created a built in feature to=
 produce feeds, that we have been using ever since, in fact moreover, googl=
e, newsnow, factiva and various others use our feeds daily

it turns out that our rss does not validate now due to a coldfusion propret=
ary tag at the top, and this is preventing=20
some of our users who are able to write ad hoc parsers to use our feeds

nobody ever told me that was a problem before, and considering our feeds co=
de is embedded in the system, it is not likely that i ll be able to upate t=
he code until next upgrade

first, I d like to ask all on this list who have worked with content-wire r=
ss before to kindly look into the problem
and update their entires where relevant, we have changed our feeds structur=
e=20

second, if someone can suggest a quick fix (I am thinking of options)  othe=
r than changing the code
that would be appreciated, thanks
