I see.

If I understand you correctly, you mean to say that this Document
Type Definition; 

<!DOCTYPE rss PUBLIC "-//Netscape Communications//DTD RSS 0.91//EN"\n

is no longer going to be hosted at Netscape but rather at the new
advisory board and therefor the debian package needs to be updated to
reflect these changes?

I see that there is a new version of the upstream source, but it too
has the old Netscape URLs;

http://search.cpan.org/src/SHLOMIF/XML-RSS-1.35/lib/XML/RSS/Private/Output/V0_91.pm

I will forward this bug to RT to inform upstream about the problem.

Regards,
	Jeremiah
