 If anybody would like to do some work on making sure the themes
validate, and are well coded that'd be a good thing around now.

 There's also a lot of nice CSS designed available at the Open
Source Web Design site which might prove inspirational to people
who are feeling creative:

 It's probably a good time to reexamine them all and make sure they
are valid and complete  .. just something I never seem terribly
thrilled by doing myself!
Each template seems to use a different dtd:

XHTML 1.0 Strict
XHTML 1.0 Transitional
HTML 4.0 Transitional
HTML 4.01 Transitional

Which one is the target? All? Perhaps a standard should be imposed?

Xhtml strict is the most demanding and would require the most changes. For example, wdg validator doesn't like the bgcolor attribute in a table tag, which is pretty fundamental to these templates. Perhaps xhtml transitional is best for now because you can do this.

What think the group? I'm no expert on dtd stuff. I just use a spec, run the validator and correct the problems until the warnings go away.
