Howdee,

   I am trying to setup a local copy of ODF Validator which can be run from 
the command line. I am planning to integrate the current version of ODF 
Validator as a test performed by OfficeShots.

  I have been trying to follow the instructions from
http://incubator.apache.org/odftoolkit/conformance/ODFValidator.html

  The above page makes reference to odfvalidator.jar but the closest thing I 
have found so far is odfvalidator-1.1.7-incubating.war. Is there an easy way 
to use the later web service to validate an ODF file from the command line? 
Sorry for the FAQ fodder, I'm not a Java programmer so don't know if there is 
a face palm solution to using a war file that way. Jar doesn't seem to want to 
execute it from the command line :/

  I also notice that the link in the Source Code section at the bottom of the 
page gives a 404.

  I think I have collected all the required dependencies for building ODF 
Validator;

I have tried to build with the following. Again, sorry if I'm using Maven 
improperly, I'm still picking it up. Perhaps the above cited ODFValidator.html 
page could have a slightly expanded list item for how to kick off the build?

$ mvn package
[ERROR] Error fetching link: /.../odfvalidator/odftoolkit-0.6.1-
incubating/odfdom/target/apidocs/package-list. Ignored it.

[INFO] ODF Validator ...................................... SKIPPED

I am happy to send through the build log or interesting fragments from it if 
that might be informative. Any hints are greatly appreciated. If there was a 
binary release I could use that would be wonderful. The more information I can 
show about how ODF files are badly formed the better for all!
