What is the magic incantation for encoding an email address along with the project owner name? From the source I see these strings need to be URL encoded (it doesn't seem to be in the doc) but now I'm getting XML errors.

I tried this: mpc5200b.git Jon+Smirl+%3Cjonsmirl%2664%3Bgmail.com%3E

Does this string really need to be URL encoded? Couldn't you split on the first space and then url encode it in the perl code? That would let me write the string in English instead of geek.

mpc5200b.git Jon Smirl <jonsmirl@gmail.com>
