Re: issue 43: Does order matter for the child elements of "defini tions"?

Almost. It should be:

<!ELEMENT definitions ( import*, types?,
(message|portType|serviceType|binding|service)*)

(I made types optional.)

Oh the simplicity of DTDs ;-).

BTW, the above has the effect that types, if present, MUST come
after imports and before anything else. That seems quite reasonable
to me.

Sanjiva.
