Description

eg:

<action dev="vmassol" type="fix" issue="MPCHANGES-14">
Added sorting of <code><action></code> elements. It is controlled
by 2 properties. The <code>maven.changes.sort</code> property decides
whether sorting is enabled or not and the
<code>maven.changes.sort.order</code> one decides the sort order.
Defaults to <code>add,fix,update,remove</code>.
</action>

comes out as:
. Fixes MPCHANGES-14

Fixed.

Text containing html tags must be enclosed in a <![CDATA[ <YOUR TEXT HERE> ]]> for this to work.

<![CDATA[ <YOUR TEXT HERE> ]]> --> is this the correct approach for this problem? any ideas?

I'd rather it be backwards compatible if possible. If it's a big problem though, I wouldn't worry about it.

It works with CDATA as workaround.
With 2.0-beta-3 it still does NOT work without the workaround.
This is sort of nasty to me.
It would be very nice if this was really fixed in further releases.

BTW it does not really make sense to be backward compatible in error situations.
The result is that HTML tags are "striped out" without a trace.
So "foo <code>bar</code>" becomes "foo ".
I can not see why this behavior should be preserved?
