We will have several samples as the first versions of the GUI/Markup part of the application starts to take shape. Though there will no way for it to naively be valid XHTML, there will/is a way to make your marked up files 100% XML. The shorthand is STRONGLY suggested, as every place we have moved from xml is to increase human readability, making hand editing easier.

Also, the first format that we will be supporting for output will be valid XHTML + CSS2 and shortly there after we will include the rest of the trappings for epub.

Remember that the main focus of this is to create a central format, that with small changes to a style sheet, you can output an optimal ebook in any format.
