Comment:

 > A broken link scan of our website revealed that the link in the feeds to
 http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/ (for the wfw namespace) is invalid.
 Going to that website reveals that the site has been taken down by the
 hosting company.

 I think the problem is that your link checker is trying to resolve/visit
 XML namespace URIs, which it shouldn't?

 Patch removes the `wfw` namespace from the export file (guessing it was
 copied over by mistake), although presumably there is no harm in leaving
 it there either.
