Invalid Markup, DOCTYPE, and source formatting
Hi Opera!First let me begin by stating I think this is a fantastic initiative and am behind you 100%. That being said, I feel there are a few changes that should be considered within the WSC site.
1. Make sure every page validates! Currently, there was a missing ALT attribute on the site (opera.com/wsc). Having these small errors could be detrimental to your company's ethos, especially with an undertaking such as this.
2. Switch over to a Strict DOCTYPE. I feel this is an important step on the road the standards-based markup.
3. Don't compress your markup. This goes along with the first two of setting a proper example for others. I'm sure I'm not alone when I immediately do a "View Source" on pages. Be proud of your beautiful markup!
Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the kind words and for pointing out that validation error. Fixed now :-)
