My point was to say that people have > expectations about what the W3 validator does. Just for the record. It's not one unique harmonious set. Different groups of People have sets of expectations about what the W3C validator does. It makes sometimes design decisions challenging. Olivier Théreaux and the validator developers community try at a regular pace to get resolutions on some non trivial issues involving conflicting opinions of different groups. There is also another issue which is the intersection of more or less well defined specifications. For an example, XHTML 1.0 defines what is a [*strict* conforming document][1]. But it doesn't define the [conformance of multi-namespaces documents][2]. "Work by W3C is addressing ways to specify conformance for documents involving multiple namespaces. " It has been hindering the development of validator for such documents.
