This is the value that will be in the final spec (because that is where
the DTD actually lives). I have just committed a fix to bring all the
webapps included with Tomcat 4 up-to-date with respect to this.
NOTE: Depending on what XML parser you use, an out-of-date value will not
matter. Tomcat registers an internal copy of the DTD with its parser, so
that as long as you get the public identifier correct, the parser will
*not* try to retrieve the DTD across the network.
