Re: [docbook-apps] DTD vs. XML Schema (not exactly regarding DocBook)

Hi,
XML Schemas don't support entities, but XIncludes should work, since they
can be put in their own namespace.  You need to use an XSLT processor that
has XInclude processing turned on in its parser, such as Xerces 2.6.2 with
the right options set.
