Not what I meant. What I meant is that I (as a user) can't (or
rather, won't) drop any of my files (private company or personal DTDs)
there, because it's against The Debian Way (TM). I put them in
/usr/local/share/sgml instead. But then, without public IDs, I can't
refer to the ISO stuff except by absolute path. (or by a CGI hack :)
