W3C List of Evaluation Tools - Relaxed HTML Validator

Hello Petr,

The W3C is updating its list of accessibility related tools and we would
like to include your validator. I have collected some information from your
website (see below) - could you please check my facts and amend as necessary
and then return to me so we can list you in the forthcoming tools database.


BACKGROUND:

The W3C/WAI Evaluation and Repair Tools Working Group (ERT WG) is currently
in the process of updating the following list of Web accessibility
evaluation tools on which your tool is listed:
  * <http://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/existingtools>

The new version of this tools list will provide sorting capabilities so that
users are able to find tools according to their specific needs. The
following static mock-ups show how this sortable list will look like:
  * <http://www.w3.org/WAI/EO/Drafts/eval/tools/>

We are contacting you to help populate the database with current information
about your tool. Below you will find information about your tool that is
currently available to us. Please review this information, complete any
missing fields or provide changes.

This information will be published unless we receive correction or
amendments. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact
  * Andrew Arch <andrew.arch@nils.org.au>

TOOL IDENTIFICATION:
* TOOL NAME: Relaxed HTML Validator
* VENDOR NAME: Petr Nálevka
* HOME PAGE: http://badame.vse.cz/validator/
* RELEASE DATE: 2005-12-08
 (YYYY-MM-DD format)
* VERSION NUMBER:
* DESCRIPTION: (100 words maximum)
"Relaxed" is an easy to use HTML validator implementation which doesn't use
the official W3C DTD's. It rather validates HTML documents using it's own
schema definitions written in Relax NG with embedded Schematron patterns.
This is an extremely expressive combination of languages which enables
validation of additional restrictions which can not be expressed using DTD.
This includes most restrictions specified in the W3C HTML 4.01 and the W3C
XHTML 1.0 recommendation and some restrictions from WAI WCAG 1.0 Guidelines.
