# That schema is informative and cannot express every rule in the RFC. Author
# inheritance and id uniqueness are two of the rules it cannot state, so check
# them separately. Entries carrying no author of their own:
xmlstarlet sel -N a=http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom \
  -t -v 'count(//a:entry[not(a:author) and not(a:source/a:author)])' -n feed.xml
# If that is not zero, the <feed> element itself needs an <author>.

# Duplicate entry ids. Any output at all is a bug:
xmlstarlet sel -N a=http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom \
  -t -m '//a:entry/a:id' -v . -n feed.xml | sort | uniq -d

# Timestamps with a lowercase t or z, which RFC 4287 section 3.3 forbids:
grep -n -E '<(updated|published)>[^<]*[tz]' feed.xml
