Parity between http://validator.w3.org/nu and http://html5.validator.nu/

Hi All,

I notice from recent messages on this list that Mike Smith applied some 
changes to http://validator.w3.org/nu.

I have a local install of both the W3C validator backed by a local 
install of the validator.nu HTML engine. The validator.nu engine was 
installed as documented at http://about.validator.nu/#src.

Are changes applied to http://validator.w3.org/nu are also applied to 
the equivalent validator at http://html5.validator.nu/? Are both 
services derived from the same codebase, such that changes are made to a 
single codebase and then deployed to both http://validator.w3.org/nu and 
http://html5.validator.nu/?

What I ultimately would like to know is: when I see on this mailing list 
that http://validator.w3.org/nu has received fixes, should I expect a 
local reinstall of the validator.nu validator to also contain the same 
fixes?

Kind regards,
Jon Cram
