-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
the code for syndication feeds was written in a time where self closing
tags didn't exist. but today, if an element has no text between the tags,
the standard is that it should be a self closing tag. python added this
functionality in 3.2 to XMLGenerator but django still doesn't use this in
generating syndication feeds. this is the matter of passing a single
argument to the SimplerXMLGenerator that django uses for generating feeds.
since SimplerXMLGenerator directly inherits from pythons XMLGenrator,
passing the arguments works with this class too .
this is my attempt at making it right
