Depends.  “Dynamic” as in…?

Hmmm.  HTML5 validation is actually more strict than HTML < 5 validation, 
enabled by a grammar that is algorithmic instead of declarative.  But this 
also makes it more difficult to implement.

XHTML5 is only XML in name as HTML5 is by design and specification the 
antithesis to XHTML (unspecified elements and attributes are allowed, the 
latter are even encouraged with “data-…” attributes, SVG and MathML can be 
embedded without declaration), so I can understand the lack of desire to 
specify a schema for it.
