Re: [svgwg] stroke-width initial value must include units

> I'm not sure why we should care about the CSS validator. It doesn't track the specifications, doesn't handle svg in html5 well, and gives more false negatives than useful information

When was the last time you tried it? I’ve actually put many hours of work this year into bringing it up to date, and @ylafon has put many more into it than I ever will.

You and @tabatkins might want to take a look through https://github.com/w3c/css-validator/commits/master

It’s pretty disheartening to have a couple of people in positions of leadership in the CSS WG expressing (and thumbs-upping) those kinds of sentiments. It’s not constructive, it doesn’t help the conversation here in any way — and it’s personally really demoralizing to me, as one of the people who’s put significant effort this year into improving the CSS validator.

You really bummed me out with that. Maybe you figure @ylafon and I should just quit caring about the CSS validator too? And quit trying to improve it?
