Attached DTD is generated from attached ODD spec. Why are the parameter entities %stuffPartSequence etc. declared in the DTD not being used? The addition of parentheses seems fairly arbitrary and (for one at least) is syntactically invalid

    Here's the DTD generated. (New Improved SF doesnt seem to permit me to add two attachments at once)

     
    oddex-2a.dtd

    agreed, this isnt right, need to look at parentheses again

    I would suggest you steer well clear of DTDs when teaching pure odd, by the way.

    Stylesheets/Test/test-pure2.odd has this test now. It is passing simple tests OK, but it would be helpful if you could check the generated DTD and RELAXNG schemas in detail.

    closing this ticket, as the fix is in place

    Let's have another vote on getting rid of DTD support. One day it'll pass. :-)

    I agree, Martin. it is a huge waste of effort for what is largely political correctness.
