Okay, here's an example extracted from xhtml11F.dtd:

| in the DOCTYPE declaration, with the xmlns attribute on the
| document element to identify the default namespace:
|
| <?xml version="1.0"?>
| <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "xhtml11.dtd">
If something sees this DOCTYPE and does _not_ know XHTML 1.1
it's proably lost, because "xhtml11.dtd" is no absolute URL.
Maybe it's smart and guesses an URL based on the //W3C// part
of the FPI. But I doubt it, and besides it won't work for less
famous organizations...
