I am also interested in RNG validation. Have you made any progress?

That old plugin seems to use JING validator internally.

To my surprise that validator is nowadays already shipped with Netbeans. =
Can anybody clarify what this dependency is used for? (located in =
NetBeans 8.2\ide\modules\ext\jing.jar )=20

I hope NB uses some kind of pluggable validation API which could be =
somehow extended via appropriate configuration. Now when jing.jar is =
already on classpath, I believe required changes won't be as complex as =
expected initially.

PS: I am willing to help with this project.
