- Update validator and sgml-libs to stable release version 0.8.3:
* The 0.8.3 release of the W3C Markup Validator is a bug fix
release, with a few small additional features.
* Changes include:
- Bug Fix: in version 0.8.2, revalidation of an uploaded file
was broken (missing markup in the HTML form)
- Updates: Added support for XHTML Basic 1.1, XHTML Mobile
Profiles (1.0, 1.1 and 1.2) and the historical HTML i18n
- Bug Fix: the validator won't override a given document
type with itself
- Conformance: The validator now warns about inconsistent
public/system identifiers combinations
- API: The custom HTTP headers in validator responses now also
include the number of warnings
- Experimental Feature: added the new option to send specific
'Accept-Charset' and 'User-Agent' headers, in addition to
'Accept' and 'Accept-Language' in version 0.8.2.

as JSON.

- updated to 0.8.2:
* Bug Fix: processing of documents through HTML Tidy would be triggered
even when not requested. The fix should provide a noticeable performance boost.
* Bug Fix: forcing or overriding the Doctype declaration would not work with
documents using an XML Declaration (Bug 857). The fix should make it much
easier to validate e.g. SVG documents.
* Bug Fix: Making sure that the validator requests a fresh version of the online
resources, when an older cached version could be returned.
* Usability: when using file upload or direct input modes, the result page will
now include a text area filled with the validated source, for easy fixing
and revalidation.(Bug 4342)
* Accessibility: the main interface was made friendlier to screen readers
* Experimental Feature: new options were added to trigger Format and
Language negotiation.
* New Feature: automatic detection of the document type for SVG documents,
even without a DOCTYPE declaration. Validation of SVG only supported for
standalone SVG documents, up to SVG 1.1.
* Documentation updates
