Bug#770129: RFP: tidy-html5 -- Experimental fork of Tidy for HTML5 documents



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : tidy-html5
  Version         : git snapshots only?
  Upstream Author : Michael[tm] Smith <mike@w3.org> ?
* URL             : http://w3c.github.io/tidy-html5/
* License         : BSD-ish
  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : Experimental fork of Tidy for HTML5 documents

This kind of thing is annoying and increasingly common:

    $ curl -s https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/reduce | tidy -q --show-warnings no
    line 131 column 81 - Error: <audio> is not recognized!
    line 131 column 376 - Error: <source> is not recognized!

The github project looks vaguely official and fixes the immediate issue.
Unless this work is likely to land in a normal tidy release, soon,
it would be handy to have tidy-html5 builds in experimental or sid.
