    Call me old school but I still use RSS feeds to keep up with stuff and last month the feed for this forum quit working.  After some investigation I discovered that it is not valid anymore :(

    http://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsocial.msdn.microsoft.com%2FForums%2Fen-US%2Fvsx%2Fthreads%3FoutputAs%3Drss

    Who do I need to contact to fix this?

    If you paste this url:

    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vsx/threads?outputAs=rss

    in the validator on this website:

    http://validator.w3.org/feed/

    and ran the check you get a bunch of errors.  It seems that thunderbird use this validator to confirm its feed.  Like I said, was working fine till the middle of dec.  I have changed to a different reader and the link works in that program so this is not an issue for me any more but others wanting to use thunderbird may run into this.
