Validating ODF documents

Prompted by some confusion out there,
which you may have read about, I've put together a guide to "How to
Validate an ODF document".  The draft is up on our wiki here:

http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/How_to_Validate_an_ODF_document

Please contribute any additions or corrections
to improve this.  In particular, it would be good to have a list of
common errors and workarounds for validation engines other than jing.

The idea is this:  if we post the
error message and the workaround on our wiki, then a developer running
into this problem and querying Google, will be likely to find a solution
to their problem here.  

Regards,

-Rob
