in reply to Brannigan: hash validation
I tried and finally gave up on Brannigan. Wonderful idea, sort of like what happens when YACC meets XSLT. But it is so generalized that I could never get it to a point where I was confident that it was doing what I wanted. It seems better suited for checking what data is, but not so much for detecting when extraneous data exists (which seems to be your use-case). I cut my losses and did it the hard way.

Please consider posting with a named account—or technical details on the hard way—so others can know how much credibility to attach to your opinion. As an AnonyMonk it's not worth the electricity that lights the pixels to display it since we have no idea if your opinion is solid gold or gobshite vomitus #FakeNews. Acronym dropping and being excited about XSLT points the compass toward the latter pole in my book.

Neither has any brand credibility and since I am not in the market for a validation framework and am firmly against squashing harmless insects, I have no action items from this meeting.
