[jdom-interest] XMLOutputter

[Steven Gould]

Igal,

The default XMLOutputter does not add any indentation or newlines, so the results you
got are correct. The javadoc for the XMLOutputter default constructor states:

>>>
This will create an XMLOutputter with no additional whitespace (indent or new lines)
added;
