Description Torkild Resheim CLA 2012-01-06 18:00:24 EST 
While it is required that HTML for EPUB is well formed, this may not always be the case. The part of the EPUB tooling used for generating the table of contents and detecting referenced resources will fail if the HTML is not well formed. **jsoup** (http://jsoup.org/) could be used instead as it it's much better at handling bad HTML and has the additional benefit of being able to clean up the HTML. Options could be added to the EPUB generator for enabling these features in order to ensure that the final EPUB is correct.

Mylyn Docs is now free to use jsoup, based on the following CQ:

5978: jsoup Version: 1.6.1 (ATO CQ5559)
https://dev.eclipse.org/ipzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5978

Also jsoup has just been added to Orbit (available in the latest Stable build http://download.eclipse.org/tools/orbit/downloads/drops/S20120123151124/)
