RE: XInclude

If you insert <xi:include> elements into an XML document with a DTD, you
must change the DTD to reflect this (or stop validating).  After
XInclude processing, the result will in the general case not be valid
against the DTD of either of the parts.

There is no standard mechanism describing DTD validation of an Infoset,
and we expect that most users will use XML Schemas when they want to
ensure the result is valid.

Thanks,
Jonathan
