[plug] XML DTD

[Chris Caston]

Thanks,

I found one that I like (at least so far) and I've printed it off.

I'm going to learn DTD's first. This is partly become DTD's are still
very widely used. The upcomming xcal iCalendar standard uses DTD's. I
was talking to Doug Royer from INET-consulting about this and he way
saying that DTD's were being used because that would allow compatibility
with mobile phones (which still use DTD's). 

I was looking at schemas and they seem (at least at the glance I had) 
more complex than DTD's. I think schemas, however, have the option of
being more scalable and extendable.

There's a few perl scripts floating around the net that can convert
DTD's to schemas.
