The CR will lead to broken line wrapping etc anyway!
In fact I like to split the "description" into several separate parts.
In other words no single text anymore. This would allow the client tools
to produce much nicer reports.

If you have a routine to split the description text, this could be a nice
basis for converting the whole Feed. Manual verification is needed though. 
Especially
because the texts should be improved as well.
