Ville Skyttä, i really dont think they should be merge and for good reasons.
html401-dtds is SGML data, to be processed with SGML tools and linked
locally with SGML catalogs. 
xhtml1-dtds is XML data, using namespaces so not interpreted correctly
by SGML processing tools, to be used with XML processing tools and linked 
locally with XML catalogs.

Can you explain what you meant by:
  - Register to SGML catalogs in addition to XML.
  - Various XML cataloguing improvements

There have been long debates in that field, i really don't want to 
wake up the sleeping dragons, but really want stuff to keep working!

Different kind of data, different kind of requirement, different kind of
usages, really merging those does not make sense at all. And the 'html'
pattern in the name is not a good technical reason for doing that merge.
So I don't understand why you though it was a good idea in the first place,
could you explain ? And please fix the xhtml1-dtds spec file if you want but
keep it separate !

Daniel
