Subject: Re: [ubl] Validating UBL 2.0 genericode files with Altova XMLSpy
I was part of the committee for OASIS XML Catalogs, as it happens. URI rewriting is mentioned in section 4.2: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/entity/spec-2001-08-06.html#s.uri.ent The thing is, it is up to a particular application to decide *which* URIs are rewritten using the catalog. There is built-in support for public and system IDs are defined for DTDs, but otherwise everything is just URLs. Cheers, Tony. On Mon, 25 Sep 2006 10:24:38 +0100, G.
