Your DTD does not allow the xmlns:aprox attribute -- delcare it
as CDATA #IMPLIED on the channel element, and similarly for the
xmlns:html attribute.

However, in practice with RSS, you can't put markup inside the
description element -- instead, you need to escape it, e.g. with
a CDATA section or with numeric character references or entities --
instead of <html:a href="xxxx"> use &lt;a href="xxx"&gt;

Yes, this is sucky almost beyond belief.
