[xep-support] Differences between version 3.7.1 and 3.8.1

[Peter Kester]

Hello Nicolai,

thanx for the very quick response. I added a block-container inside the
floats and it worked like before, so thank you very much for your help.
You are of course right about the width attribute.
I was distracted by the fact that XEP didn't warn about the width attribute
being a XEP extension like it does with the float attributes.

Best regards,

Peter Kester

Peter,

This is a known issue: fo:block cannot take 'width' attribute, but until
recently,
it did. We fixed this in XEP 3.8.1, bringing the respective part into
agreement
with the spec: 'width' is now ignored on the blocks. You have to use
fo:block-container element in this context instea of fo:block.

This was actually a bug in XEP 3.7.1: it treated all validity errors as
warnings.
For this reason, DISCARD_IF_NOT_VALID never applied: there was not
a single validation error, just warnings :-). The issue was fixed in XEP
3.7.2.

> DISCARD_IF_NOT_VALID=true

This is how it should be by design, and by the documentation.
