>
>    A. run off the JSON schemas https://github.com/dataprotocols/schemas.
> This means much more detailed checking and reporting
>    B. Use JSON lint to report issues with datapackage.json
>
> 2. We have updated the online validator at
> http://data.okfn.org/tools/validate to use the latest version of the
> library (so all these benefits flow through there). Here's an example
> <http://data.okfn.org/tools/validate?url=https%3A%2F%2Fraw.githubusercontent.com%2Fdatasets%2Fgdp%2Fmaster%2Fdatapackage.json>
> (on a valid Data Package so a bit boring)
>
> 3. We have likewise updated dpm command line tool
> <https://github.com/okfn/dpm> (so same benefits there)
