Re: [jats-list] BITS DTD costumization

Hi Paulin,

I also briefly noticed a '(' issue when trying to debug your other issue 
with undeclared entities.

Does it go away when you validate BITS-book2.dtd? Then it's probably 
related to the lack of DTD master file support that Radu mentioned.

The second problem that you describe, undeclared entities in your new 
models, is probably the same as the one you reported recently?

You can send me the current state of your customization in a private 
message and I can try to figure out what's going on. (I cannot promise 
to look into it before Sunday though because I still have to prepare the 
slides for the talk that I'm going to give at XML Prague tomorrow.)

I briefly mentioned that customizing the schema in oXygen could be 
easier if you used a format for which master file support exists, such 
as Relax NG.

Going back from an RNG schema to DTD can be difficult to impossible 
though, since you can express things in RNG that are illegal in DTD. You 
can avoid this by avoiding such constructs, but you'd still need a tool 
that converts the RNG back to DTD. I don't know whether there exists 
some XSLT for it.

Being a staunch proponent of RNG, I'd personally stick with the 
RNG-based customization without ever trying to go back to DTD.

As an example of how such a customization looks like, you can have a 
look at the HoBoTS (Hogrefe Book Tag Set) customization that is built on 
BITS-book1.rng: https://hobots.hogrefe.com/schema/hobots.rng
You can download the whole customization from 
https://hobots.hogrefe.com/schema/hobots.zip (the schema still says the 
package is at http:... rather than https:...)
