Thanks.
So what's the interpretation of the spec where it has these two categories, one of which is recoverable? What tools does that apply to?

A tool calling itself an XML parser must treat XML errors as fatal.
A tool that corrects XML errors will be classified as something else.
An example of a parser that's tolerant of XML errors (so not an XML
parser) would be MindTouch's SGMLReader[1]. This is a parser that
implements the .NET XmlReader interface; if memory serves, there are a
few gaps in the implementation - because it specialises in handling
HTML.
