No response

Known Workarounds

As workaround, one can use Net.Http.HttpClient.GetAsync / Net.Http.HttpResponseMessage.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(), then use string replace before using XMLreader

  sPage = sPage.Replace("CET</pubDate>", "</pubDate>")
  sPage = sPage.Replace("CEST</pubDate>", "</pubDate>")
    Using oReader As Xml.XmlReader = Xml.XmlReader.Create(New IO.StringReader(sPage))
        oRssFeed = ServiceModel.Syndication.SyndicationFeed.Load(oReader)
    End Using
