As AC Rep for Mobileaware, at the recent AC meeting I made some suggestions. Here they are, for your consideration. If you want clarifications, reply to the list and cc me directly. --- If validator gives boolean result, then "false" is so negative that you are not encouraged to try again. --- But if validator gives a ranking (e.g. percentage) then you are encouraged to improve your result. Eventually you get 100% and are conformant. --- Validator should give tips to remedy non-conformant sites/pages based on analysis of non-conformant pages. --- On-line validator should keep track of most common errors and feed results to WGs who are interested in improving authoring tools. (This could be *very* useful.) --- Our s/w uses XHTML as its primary input, generating all kinds of output formats. Can we use W3C validator in our input pipeline?
