I note that there has been a change in the CR draft to use absolute URI to refer to the various modules. This is a real pain as it means that one can not make a local copy of the DTD without extensive editing in dozens of places. On some systems one could use an SGML Open catalogue to override the supplied URI, but catalogues are not required (or even mentioned) in the XML spec, and so can not be relied upon in typical XML systems, and certainly should not be relied upon in any canonical versions of the DTDs, which should only use standard XML features. As commented in the introduction to this draft, there had been quite a lot of work done to coordinate earlier versions of this with the MathML DTD, but I'm not at all sure how I can best incorporate MathML into this version. In the short term, I'll probably base the combined xhtml+mathml on the xhtml 1.1 DTD which does have relative URI, but having xhtml not corresponding to the modules in the modularisation draft is presumably not intended to be a permanent situation.
