There is no normative DTD (or EBNF notation) for XLink; suggestive 
non-normative DTD snippets are shown throughout.  Because it uses an 
attribute-based structure, and because (for example) any XLink element is 
potentially allowable in any other XLink element (even though it may not 
have any XLink-dictated meaning), I think a normative DTD would be so loose 
as to be pretty much worthless.
