Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
        Key: MAVEN-895
    Summary: XML entities in project description cause xdoc to complain
       Type: Bug

     Status: Unassigned
   Priority: Minor

 Time Spent: Unknown
  Remaining: Unknown

    Project: maven
   Versions:
             1.0-rc1

   Assignee: 
   Reporter: Daniel Rabe

    Created: Mon, 6 Oct 2003 12:52 PM
    Updated: Mon, 6 Oct 2003 12:52 PM
Environment: Windows XP

Description:
In my project.xml, I have a description that includes a URL; the URL contains ampersands, so I encode the & as &amp;, like this: http://mysite.com/x.jsp?a=1&amp;b=2. 

By the time this data makes it to target/generated-xdocs/navigation.xml, it's been unescaped, so the data in there is simply: http://mysite.com/x.jsp?a=1&b=2. Of course, this is no longer valid XML, so the xdoc plugin fails:
BUILD FAILED
File...... file:/d:/maven/plugins/maven-xdoc-plugin-1.4/
Element... x:parse
Line...... 328
Column.... 43
Error on line 12 of document file:/D:/maven/target/generated-xdocs/index.xml : The reference to entity "nodeId" must end
 with the ';' delimiter. Nested exception: The reference to entity "nodeId" must end with the ';' delimiter.

I tried double-escaping, so that the original has &amp;amp; for the original ampersand. The plugin runs to completion, but the resulting HTML file has spaces before and after the ampersand.
