Hi,

Regarding RSS feed having default fake email adress [email protected]. In a previous threads you answered that it's required perspecs.

But,

the <author> subitem is optional, also per RSS specs.
https://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification#ltauthorgtSubelementOfLtitemgt
And it is also encouraged to avoid using two elements which mean the same thing like <author> and <dc:creator>.
https://www.rssboard.org/rss-validator/docs/warning/DuplicateItemSemantics.html

So maybe you can remove <author> since there is no relevant information like a valid email adress and just use <dc:creator> like it's already done for the username.

I would prefer not having a fake email and just the username. But if you can't or need the two elements I can live with it.

Hope this help.

RSS is an aging standard, and like any standard, it evolves.

Unfortunately, we currently lack the necessary resources and budget to sustain the RSS standard. The reality is that very few people actually utilize it nowadays.

Eventually, ASF will cease its support for RSS feeds, as I previously mentioned. While I do not have an exact timeline, rest assured that we will provide ample notice when that day arrives.
