Thanks for your reply.
I should perhaps be more clear about my intentions:
The intention is to first get to a GetSimpleCMS base product without bugs/errors, that is able to generate valid HTML5 after a default installation, just using the default theme (or themes, Innovation as well as Cardinal) without alterations or plugins.
This is why I want to fix the Innovation theme, using a fix that can be incorporated in GetSimpleCMS right away (with the author's approval), before I proceed to the next step: creating a demo site to show the (bare) potential of GetSimpleCMS.
My current work is not based on the current stable release but on an "upstream" clone.
If I encounter a bug/error and manage to solve it, I will contribute my solution to the developers via a GitHub "pull request" and then it's up to them to decide whether or not to incorporate it in their "upstream" branch.
Have you contributed your version to the developers through GitHub (using a "pull request")?
I haven't downloaded your zip file yet, but I've run a validation (via http://validator.nu) on both your "tutorials" page and your "innovationoutline" page at http://eatons.net/tutorials
I'm sorry to say that there were 9 errors on both pages.
3 of those are the same as in the original Innovation theme. These three have been fixed by a bug fix suggested by me to the GetSimpleCMS developers on GitHub which has been accepted in the upstream "master" branch (see: fixes #851, June 30 2014).

it's based on the innovation theme and HTML 5.

It may just help you solve your problem.As I've said, for now my goal is to just get to a basic bug-free product and to fix the default Innovation theme, but your version may certainly be useful for further development/improvement of the Innovation theme.
Download InnovationOutline Theme v1.4 - Link is in the tutorial.
Hope this helps!
