Hi,

I just want you to note that the DTD fragment 
(ISO special entities for XHTML Modularization)
contains two lines that may create broken XML if entity replacement 
is applied on XHTML-1.1 documents:

<!-- C0 Controls and Basic Latin -->
<!ENTITY lt      "&#38;&#60;" ><!-- less-than sign, U+003C ISOnum -->
<!ENTITY gt      "&#62;" ><!-- greater-than sign, U+003E ISOnum -->
<!ENTITY amp     "&#38;&#38;" ><!-- ampersand, U+0026 ISOnum -->

&lt; will be replaced by &< instead of &#60;
&amp; will be replaced by && instead of &#38;

Will this bug be fixed "in-place", or should I overwrite the corresponding
entity in my DTDs with another version of the file?

regards,
jens
