Namespace Resolution is Now Content Negotiated

With the help of some of the w3c system guys I've finally got content 
negotiation on the namespace working, each of the following will get you a 
different result

wget -s http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig
#the spec in HTML

wget -s --header='Accept: text/html;' http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig
#the spec in HTML

wget -s --header='Accept: text/xml;' http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig
#the schema

wget -s --header='Accept: application/xml-dtd;' 
http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig
#the DTD

I've also been considering RDDL [1], but it and the schema would vie for the 
same content type and isn't that widely used yet -- thought it is cool and 
would obviate the necessity of tricky URI rewrites!
