Strict XHTML parsing ?

[snarkturne]

Some gitlab atom feed can't be parsed. i found that the problem is that gitlab feeds contain <br> tags, instead of <br /> tags. These tags come from double space end of lines in markdown. I think gitlab should translate this to <br /> and not <br> but... As a quick "fix", would it be possible for readrops (don't know which parser is used) to accept <br> tags ?

Here is an example of a rejected atom feed :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<feed xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom" xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/">
<title>Test Atom Feed</title>
<link href="https://no" rel="self" type="application/atom+xml"/>
<link href="https://no" rel="alternate" type="text/html"/>
