Fix confirmed.  "Many eyes make bugs shallow " (even the crazy ones).

And actually, this functionality was highly on our priority list (so
that in case
of non-conformance of the translations into other formats, at least we can
state that the original ODF document is conforming to the ODF spec).

Do you have any indication of how complete the checks are (like 50% or
90% or 99% or 100% of the requirements in the ODF 1.0 specification are
validated) ?

I assume the code refered to on this page:

  http://www.opendocumentfellowship.org/projects/odftools

is the core of the validator ? If so, it might be useful to refer to that code
from the actual Validator page.

Thanks,

Peter
