I love Calibre - I think it is great. Last time I looked Calibre had a bunch of closed bugs and a fair number of open ones. Work in progress means you are not done yet... There is always another bug ahead.

Are you saying Epubcheck will never be better than mediocre?

I am not associated with Epubcheck, but I know the great value of tools like FindBugs (http://findbugs.sourceforge.net/) in the Java arena. There are definite analogies here - and I would consider myself irresponsible as a programmer if I did not use the tools available to me.
