Since matters came to a head for me, I sat down and wrote some catalogs. A tar file is attached. Please note (1) I have no idea whether this will work for you in your proposed xml-base / xml-common package. If it works, well and good. It works for me at any rate. (2) On the assumption that XML catalogs need not have to deal with SGML document DTD, when I cloned only the referenced XML related files from /etc/sgml/catalog. If this is an incorrect assumption, please let me know. If you find this useful and need to make modifications, please feel free to add your names to the copyright statement. Regards, Jor-el
