Pull Request (PR) description:
Commit b07514f, as part of PR #1517 and included in v4.28.0, mistakenly removed / from the XML self-closing tag inside the default IISServer-10.0-3.5 OrgSetting file -- making it an unclosed XML tag. As a result, IISServer configuration fails due to unclosed XML tags.

This PR is a small one -- it adds the / back to the IISServer-10.0-2.5 default settings file. Running IISServer configuration -- at least on my machines -- works again.

This Pull Request (PR) fixes the following issues:

This fully resolves the issues brought up in Issue #1504 that were intended to be solved in PR #1517.

Task list:

  • Change details added to Unreleased section of CHANGELOG.md (Not required for Convert modules)?
    • I will do this after a review/thumbs-up from others. The README.CONTRIBUTING.md pointed me to the wrong file to update, and I misread this question as being the same, non-existent changelog file.
  • Added/updated documentation, comment-based help and descriptions where appropriate?
  • Examples appropriately updated?
  • New/changed code adheres to Style Guidelines?
  • Unit and (optional) Integration tests created/updated where possible?

Further notes:
The removal of / in b07514f did not affect 3.4 (only 3.5) because 3.4 was using full-closing XML tags, versus 3.5 which used self-closing XML tags.

It is perhaps worth noting that self-closing tags are used in several places for OrganizationSettings, such as in the IE11 STIG, so 3.4's usage of non-self-closing tags for an empty "body" seems a little out-of-the-ordinary. It's a nit-pick, but I would maybe like 3.4's configuration to be changed to a self-closing tag inline with the other XML files I've seen in this repo.

XML self-closing tag from the default IISServer-10.0-3.5 OrgSetting
file. As a result, IISServer configuration failed due to unclosed XML
tags.
