Umm. What appears to be the problem?

I think the tools would continue to work, but as a human I
like having all my DTD's in one location rather than being scattered
all over. Since this is not a strong reason, I guess I would not be
opposed to scattering the DTD's around if there is a technical
reason.

Does the package not use the catalog file then? I thought
catalog files were standard?
