I'm using the Abdera API to grab Atom feeds. I've tried a few different Atom feeds and I'm getting the following exception with all of them:

As far as I can tell, the Abdera API is having trouble with the DOCTYPE declaration and is trying to fetch the strict.dtd. Is there a way to work around the DOCTYPE declaration?
