#1725: timeline RSS XML includes unescaped characters in author element
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
       Id:  1725      |      Status:  new                     
Component:  timeline  |    Modified:  Mon Jun 27 11:05:34 2005
 Severity:  normal    |   Milestone:                          
 Priority:  normal    |     Version:  devel                   
    Owner:  jonas     |    Reporter:  brad@fritzfam.com       
----------------------+-----------------------------------------------------
 In the RSS view of the timeline, less-than and greater-than signs in the
 author elements, e.g. as used in email addresses like:

   John Doe <jdoe@domain.tld>

 are not escaped.  That can make the RSS XML unparseable and break the
 feed.

 A concrete example:

 {{{
 $ curl -s
 "http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/timeline?changeset=on&milestone=on&ticket=on&ticket_details=on&wiki=on&max=50&daysback=90&format=rss"
