Default RSS Feed of Newsletters not including data or ID?

Hi

I have decided to utilise the RSS option to show newsletters. I want it update don Twitter, and other places.. but it seems its not providing necessary data. There are no GUIDs or Dates included with the feeds, which are necessary.

Anyone know a way around this, does Interspire read this and can add a comment?

Thanks a lot

Here is the output from FeedValidator, you can see it has errors:
http://feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?u...php%3FList%3D5

I am going to try to see if I can make it work by editing the rss.php file.

Using the FeedValidaot errors, I have taken a Wordpress RSS feed and added the necessary tags missing, and removed unused tags. So the attached rss.php file now validates for me and is possible to add to other RSS applications like FeedBurner and TwitterFeed.

To interspire, I hope you can take this file and or improve your own yourself and incolude it in the next release to have a valid RSS feed.

Thanks

For info the minimum needed to get this work I think was:-
Add to the
Change pudate to pubDate (capital D)

But I added other things too to make it validate - working fine now!
