[Bug 1029209] Re: tidy doesn't support html5 syntax

 

As explained in that issue, and in an Ubuntu question https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tidy/+question/276623
 the https://github.com/htacg/tidy-html5 is not a fork. It is canonical 
for HTML Tidy as of 2015-January-15...

first release: https://github.com/htacg/tidy-html5/releases/tag/5.0.0
last release: https://github.com/htacg/tidy-html5/releases/tag/5.1.25

There is no conflicting version numbers. This Samantic type versioning 
was adopted in the first release, and will continue. And the package name 
will remain tidy...

I am trying to get in touch with Jason Thomas to try to do something 
about debian and ubuntu outdated tidy packages. Hopefully soon...

Bug description:
  Upstream (W3C?) hasn't updated the code in years, so it doesn't
