>Description:
Currently the RSS feeds for SECURITY ADVISORIES and ERRATA NOTICES are currently broken...
http://www.freebsd.org/security/rss.xml
http://www.freebsd.org/security/errata.xml
..while the RSS feeds for LATEST NEWS works as expected:
http://www.freebsd.org/news/rss.xml
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to access the RSS feeds using Mozilla Firefox 15+ or Internet Explorer 9+. Possibly any other RSS reader will suffer the same behaviour and is unable to access the RSS feeds.
>Fix:
A quick diff showed a difference in the XML namespace declaration:

So $someone needs to fix this.
