There is a single error in Bugs/index.en.html I didn't look into.
Almost all are in the News directory. the Weekly News is particulary bad.
There are a few in consultants, wnpp, international and searchtmpl
There are quite a number of problems in doc/maint-guide and
doc/developers-reference
I have no idea what the author intended with the html for the following:
** Errors validating /org/www.debian.org/www/ports/alpha/news.en.html: ***
Line 255, character 26: document type does not allow element "DIV" here; missing one of "APPLET", "OBJECT", "MAP", "IFRAME", "BUTTON" start-tag
ports/powerpc/inst/apus.en.html and ports/powerpc/inst/prep.en.html
have a tag <prgn>. No idea what that is.
ports/powerpc/inst/install.en.html includes lines like the following:
<tr></tr><tr bgcolor="#f3f3f3">
<td><strong>Apple</strong></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
A little strange, but anything wrong with an empty row?
I didn't touch ports/hurd.
I believe I fixed all the other errors.
