= Description =

I tried to export Wiki Pages as XML 
== Steps to reproduce ==
Just try to export the Startpage as XML. After examing the Raw-Format, it seems MoinMoin comments are improperly exported as a series of non-closing `<p>` Tags. There are three commented lines after we need help:
{{{
## * MoinBeta - help by testing development versions.

##== Planned Events ==
## * 2007-01-23..25 !MoinMoin at OpenSourceMeetsBusiness.
}}}  and these are exported as:

{{{
<p><p><p><p></p>
}}}

== Example ==
##Add URL that show the bug, screenshot or test wiki markup that fail...

URL: http://moinmo.in/4ct10n/show/MoinMoinWiki?action=show&mimetype=text/xml

== Component selection ==

## Where you think is this bug happening ? (general, plugin [plugin name], theme [theme name], ...

 * general

== Details ==

## If you got a traceback, please save the traceback page as html and attach here:
## attachment:traceback.html

## if the bug is in this wiki, just kill the table and write: This Wiki.

This Wiki.

== Workaround ==
## How to deal with the bug until it is fixed


= Discussion =

There are many problems with the text/xml import besides the unbalanced p tags.  Images are broken, and there are undefined &nbsp; entities.  I'm fixing these as I run into them, and will try to keep this page updated with a patch against Moin 1.9 trunk.

I see the status "moin2 will have better xml stuff (moin 1.x can't be easily fixed)", but at least some of the brokenness can be fixed now, as the attachment illustrates.

= Plan =
## This part is for Moin``Moin developers:

 * Priority: 
 * Assigned to:
 * Status: moin2 will have better xml stuff (moin 1.x can't be easily fixed)
