Fork of Respect\\Validation

[The most awesome validation engine ever created for PHP.](http://bit.ly/1a1oeQv)

- Complex rules made simple: `v::numeric()->positive()->between(1, 255)->validate($input)`.
- [Granularity control](docs/README.md#validation-methods) for advanced reporting.
- More than 100 (fully tested) validators.
- [A concrete API](docs/CONCRETE_API.md) for non fluent usage.
- Works on PHP 5.4+ or HHVM 3.3+
