Thanks, Don. But what I (and Hussein, I think) are looking for is a URL
where the DTDs or XSDs actually reside and can be read by a parser.
These files could be used if DITA DTDs couldn't be found locally.

For example, the DocBook DTD can be found here:
http://www.docbook.org/xml/4.3/docbookx.dtd

The OASIS Schemas and DTDs are listed directly on the home page for the
Technical Committee at
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=dita . Look
for the heading "Committee Draft 1.0.1 of the DITA DTDs and Schemas "
for the latest materials with bug fixes.
