Hi Felipe. This is because Wordpress generates invalid XML; you may
notice that the default XML namespace is not defined in that feed.
Planet doesn't deal well with this, but apparently Venus knows how to
work around it. Venus is a fork of Planet which is (perhaps) better
maintained. I haven't actually tried it yet, so my planet still has
this bug, but I plan to soon.

Unfortunately, it has a web site that's about as crappy as Planet's ;-)
