I think we need to repeat our complaints until the fundamentally misleading Subject line is changed in the validator. However I think I'm not the only one considering the option of unsubscribing. Now this list seems to be largely filled with elementary questions that indicate lack of understanding of what validation is, under the misleading Subject line. I don't think it's a good idea to pass any feedback unfiltered to a discussion list. -- Jukka "Yucca" Korpela, http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/
