intertwingly

Continuing my minimalist markup quest, I’ve converted posts to be mostly valid HTML5.  The overall structure is correct, but individual comments may only be well-formed but may contain deviations from validity.  Most posts will have no span, div, or table elements.  Over time, the hope is to make it so that all new comments are valid.

The HTML5 Validator is currently down, so I proceeded to install a local copy.  Other than having to make the following change, all went smoothly.

I’m also experimenting with hoisting the author’s name to a floating aside in the top right of each comment.

Sections are used to group comments by days.  These groupings will adjust based on your local time zone.

The pages themselves display reasonably consistently between the three browsers that I have been testing with (Firefox 3.0, Safari 3.1.2, Opera 9.5), and mostly differ in the amount of support they have for CSS-based rounded corners (full, partial, none; respectively).
