epubveri 0.14.2 is out.
Someone ran their entire Apple Books library — 2,798 books — through both epubveri and epubcheck, and sent a full comparison that traced every disagreement back to the markup that caused it. Their numbers: the two tools reached the same verdict on 98.5% of the books.
0.14.2 closes 11 of the 12 false positives that run found, and 15 of the 18 checks we were missing. Three rows are not fixed: one I cannot reproduce, one is a deliberate decision, and one turned out not to be a gap at all.
Each was settled against the specification before any code moved, because epubcheck can be wrong too — and twice the spec turned out to be more precise than epubcheck is.
