I just finished resetting the heading/structural outline for publicly facing pages (subdirectory install -- forum starts with <h2>), I'm about to recode it for a root install (forum starts with <h1>), then zip both versions of the theme and upload them here. This will conclude my valid-HTML edits to the default theme, after which I'll begin my edit for the
default theme in RDFa (https://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?topic=5488.0).
As promised, the reset headings/structural outline for the default theme's templates.
I have two versions here, one for a root install, such as: www.exampleforum.com
and another version for a sub-directory install, such as: www.example.com/forum/
both zips are of the "themes/default" directory.
About this edit. I ended up removing almost all of the semantic html elements. The "news" is still in an
<aside> but that's about it for semantic elements. I also removed the duplicate breadcrumbs at the bottom of the template.
Also, if you're using the
subdirectory_default.zip version you need to search the
index.template.php file for
<h1> and replace my homepage with yours.
One more thing, for those using other languages, there's one edit in the
index.english.php file you'll need to duplicate in your language's index file for proper headings. Search for:
$txt['last_post_message']
...and edit your language's index file accordingly.

Following along, what is the plan, to submit via GitHub for 1.2? 2.0? Or complete the templates and ask a dev to commit?
Sorry, I just noticed this reply. I'll probably just zip it up and upload here, if anyone wants to add it to Github, feel free.
