Basic functionality to implement (sync with latest version of [http://ceur-ws.org/HOWTOSUBMIT.html#TOPERRORS](top mistakes)):

  • index.html structure:
    • using outdated Vol-XXX template (check date stamp)
    • invalid HTML (feed through W3C service, or tidy)
    • encoding should be US-ASCII, with HTML entities for non-ASCII characters
    • authors not separated with comma (but, e.g., with “and”)
    • incomplete author names (comparing author/title with PDF would be too hard to automate)
    • inconsistent title capitalisation (e.g. compute ratio of capitalised letters for each title, warn about outliers)
    • only one submitting editor at the bottom
    • link to workshop must work
    • title must not be the Vol-XXX sample title
  • paper full-text:
    • copyright clauses (scan full-text PDF for the usual suspects: Springer, ACM, …)
  • file/directory structure of ZIP:
    • not in ZIP format
    • no metadata (.DS_Store, __MACOSX, .svn, .git)
    • PDF papers not in subdirectories but on top level

Should output a command line for error-report. Initially just with --error parameters for each error encountered, later with arguments (e.g. name of erroneous paper file).
