[OGo-Developer] Note text mangled in RSS

When I look at the RSS for a project notes all the newlines are lost -
that is if the note is a list of items like:

* Item 1
* Item 2
* Item 3

it looks via RSS like * Item 1 * Item 2 * Item 3.

It appears that the note is placed into the RSS feed by appendRSSItem in
ZideStore/SoObjects/ZSProjects/SxProjectNotesRSS.m -
...
  [_r appendContentString:@"        <description>"];
  [_r appendContentXMLString:[_note valueForKey:@"noteContent"]];
  [_r appendContentString:@"</description>\n"];
...

It seems like new lines in the noteContent (which is straight text)
should be converted to "<BR/>".
