Curious treatment of entities in xmlTreeParse
...ing to use the tm package to read in material from RSS
2.0 feeds, which has required grappling with writing a reader for that
flavour of XML. I get an error - "Error : 1: EntityRef: expecting ';' -
which I think I've tracked down.
The feed being processed is from Wordpress:
http://scottbw.wordpress.com/feed/
Note that it contains a number of entity references in various places.
The trouble-makers seem to be & references that are the "&" in a URL
query string.
