Missing recommended iTunes foo element: bar

Explanation

In order to submit your feed to iTunes, there are a number of elements which should be present, including <language>, <itunes:category>, and <itunes:explicit>.

If you are including iTunes elements in your Atom feed, add an xml:lang attribute to the feed element to satisfy the language requirement.

<feed xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'
xmlns:itunes='http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd'
xml:lang='en-US'>

Solution

Consider adding the recommended element.
