Are the forum RSS feeds broken again?

Question
-
W3C validator says the RSS feed - for example for this forum - 'does not validate'.
Thunderbird also complains that the feed is invalid.

Thanks for reporting this. I'm curious if anyone else is having the same issue. The feed seems to render fine: http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/reportabug/threads?outputAs=rss

The feed looks okay to me in a web browser, but I'm not using an actual reader or trying to do any validation on it.
There have been a few reports of this in the past though:
