+/// A validator that validates that a package doesn't contain compiled Dartdoc

[Bob Nystrom, 2013/01/31 18:54:54]

"A validator that validates" -> "Validates".

Done.

How about:

Avoid putting generated documentation in doc/.
That directory is intended to contain hand-created documentation.
Generated documentation just bloats the package with redundant data.

[nweiz, 2013/01/31 20:31:54]

The "that directory" text only makes sense if they put it in "doc" specifically,
which they won't always do. I'll use the other lines, though.

+              "Publishing compiled documentation causes package bloat without "
+                  "providing value for users.");
+        }
+      });
+    });
+  }
+}
