On every page Shopsite generates the meta name automatically.
Example
<meta name="generator" content="ShopSite Pro 11 r1.2 (data - BG4-Home-Default)">
Which is fine except that it doesnt have a end tag '/' . It should look like
<meta name="generator" content="ShopSite Pro 11 r1.2 (data - BG4-Home-Default)" />
Is there a way to fix this?

ShopSite generates html code. The /> at the end of a tag is xhtml syntax. There is no way to force ShopSite to publish xhtml code.

In future versions/updates of Shopsite will this be changed?

How do we remove this tag all together? I don't buy this "can't be done" business.

The meta generator tag will be output after the first instance of 'head' found in the template. To get around this, you can put the <head> tag in a custom template include file and use [-- INCLUDE filename --] (note that this is WITHOUT the 'PROCESS' parameter, so ShopSite will not be parsing the include file's content, just dumping it into the page) in place of the <head> tag in your template.
Note that the meta generator tag is useful for supportability, since it also includes the ShopSite version and the name of the custom template used to create it, so consider leaving the <head> tag in the template, just comment out that line, that way you can easily see where to put it back in the future if you want to make sure the page is being generated via the template you think it should be.
