       Body:
This is partially solved. The forrest-site avalon-tigris skins now validate okay, and have a (optional) w3c logo:

http://forrestbot.cocoondev.org/sites/xml-forrest/index.html

The krysalis-site skin doesn't validate, because the menu relies on some invalid HTML:

<ul>
  <li>A
  <ul>
     <li>B
     <li>C

to achieve the nice multi-layer hierarchy:

= A
   - B
   - C

If that were fixed to:

<ul>
  <li>...
  <li>
    <ul>
      <li>...
      <li>...

Then the 'useless' <li> causes a CSS image to be placed just before that of the subsequent 'useful' <li>. The result isn't too pretty.

I'll attach a HTML sample illustrating the problem.  Help from the CSS clueful would be appreciated.

Once done, I suggest you add the w3c validator logo and its auto-validating URL to the footer!
