Does this explain why I can't view any of the xml docs that I downloaded
with the 1_0_1 source distribution?? It's missing the relevant dtd files. Is
there a place where I can get those?  Thanks,

Bob D

p.s. I can't build the source using ant either. I get the following using
jdk1.3 under windoze NT4.0

Compiling 182 source files to D:\downloads\Xerces\xerces-1_0_1\build\classes
D:\downloads\Xerces\xerces-1_0_1\build\src\org\apache\xml\serialize\OutputFo
