Debugging feedparser

[Simon Morris]

Hello,

I mailed this list a while ago about my Serendipity feed that wasn't 
playing nicely with Planet

http://lists.waugh.id.au/archives/devel/2006-February/000683.html

I think we decided that the version of feedparser the guy who runs our 
planet site is using was old.

He gave me this debug he encounters when trying to syndicate my site... 
at the moment I don't appear on planet.gllug.org.uk at all :(


$ /home/dwilson/sandbox/bin/run_planet_gllug.sh

     data = p.output()
   File "feedparser.py", line 853, in output
     return "".join(self.pieces)
UnicodeError: ASCII decoding error: ordinal not in range(128)

My question is - What tests can I do myself to try and track down where 
things are going wrong? Can I prove that my feed is to blame here at 
all, or is it feedparser?

Thanks
