FW: Problems with xhtml11.dtd?

I had taken this off list, but as Henrik pointed out, this appears to be a
W3 issue with the published DTD's(?)

Of course, it's perfectly possible that both these XML parsers are getting
their SGML in a twist...


PS, Nice X-Message-Flag header, Henrik -- shame I can't act on it :)

Report this to the mailing list as well, as it is a problem at W3C. Thanks.
