Relax NG
    Finished yesterday a first decent-but-not-complete-yet version of my Relax NG validator and a very raw on line validator. There are still a number of limitations (includes and external refs, class names and datatypes others than Relax NG builtin "string" and "token" and some validity checks of the schemas themselves are not implemented yet) but the validator passes the 213 tests of the test suite corresponding to what is already implemented.
DSDL
    My next step will be to implement a prototype of the strawman I have proposed for the DSDL Interoperability Framework which enables to perform transformations during the validation of a document. BTW, I have noticed that Relax NG does already implement such a transformation in its "list" pattern which splits a text node into a list and I see it as a good sign that my proposal doesn't break the mathematical foundation of Relax NG...
