Fwd: New EPUBCheck v5.0.0 preview is available for testing

Dear all,

this is an important milestone for the EPUB 3.3 work. Note that this is still a preview, not a stable release ready for production.  However, if you contribute a test to the test suite, you are encouraged to use already this version of epubcheck to make sure that the test itself is conform to the specification.

Thanks to the Epubcheck team!

Ivan
