Since these DTDs are, effectively, source code, doesn't this fall under the exception in section 4 of the DFSG? In the same way, incidentally, as TeX does: the TeX source code is written in WEB, and you're not allowed to change it, but you can compile it along with a 'changes' file to generate a patched TeX executable. When you use a DTD, you don't compile it into an executable, but if you can still `patch' it easily, it's okay, right? -- Charles Briscoe-Smith White pages entry, with PGP key: <URL:http://alethea.ukc.ac.uk/wp?95cpb4> PGP public keyprint: 74 68 AB 2E 1C 60 22 94 B8 21 2D 01 DE 66 13 E2 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
