I didn't set anything up.  One thing to note though is that I'm not 
using
the template system for the current specs.  The validator I have now is
much more powerful than the one then so I'm parsing the spec documents
and validating them.  "More powerful" includes that I can report the
error line as it is in the spec document and not just in the piece
of XML to validate.

It should be possible to just pull the specs out of CVS.
