Hi All; I noticed that wdg-html-validator had been orphaned for more than a year, and since I use the offline validator script, I filed an ITA (http://bugs.debian.org/390833). Now that I look at the logistics of packaging it (download 5 files from 5 places, make .orig.tar.gz by hand, no watch file) and the fact that it includes CGI, I am a little less enthusiastic (this is emphatically not a criticism of Aurelien Jarno's packaging work).
So, some questions: 1) If there is another good offline (i.e. shell command) html validator in Debian? weblint-perl for (non)-example does not support xhtml. 2) Are there any compelling advantages to the cgi validator provided by wdg-html-validator versus w3c-html-validator? The packages have about the same popcon counts. If the answer to 1=yes, 2=no, probably I will re-orphan. If 1=no, 2=no, I might consider repackaging just the offline validator.
