I just noted that my blog currently doesn't generate valid XHTML code. The cause is the flattr plugin. It produces errors like this:
* there is no attribute "data-flattr-uid"
* there is no attribute "data-flattr-tags"
* there is no attribute "data-flattr-category"

You can check here:

I first thought this might be due to stuff I modified on my blog, but this also happens on the s9y blog itself (along with other errors and warnings unrelated to that):

That's because data-* is an HTML5 element. So the plugin would need alternate markup for blogs still running on XHTML. (Or you could just ignore the fact that it's not valid, of course.)
