I have now done so (thanks), and I have more questions.

1. If the HTML is not well-formed, how robust is the WYSIWYG editor?  If
   there's a decent chance the editor would start mangling content, it
   seems like we'd want to flag as many bad pages now as we can, before
   the migration.

2. I validated the page using the "Validate by URI" tab at
   validator.w3.org, using the defaults for all the options.  Is that
   the expected way to do it?  It gives me "XHTML 1.0 Strict" checking
   with 9 errors.  6 of the errors that the validator is reporting
   appear to be from the site boilerplate, not the editable content.

   I tried revalidating using "XHTML 1.0 Transitional" instead of "XHTML
   1.0 Strict" and still got 2 errors, both of which appear to be in the
   boilerplate.  Validating as "XHTML 1.0 FrameSet" gives me 4 errors,
   all of which appear to be in the site boilerplate.

   I also tried the "validate by direct input" tab, copying in the
   content text from the portal's "edit page" form.  But it seems I need
   to specify a doctype, and I don't know what to specify.
