For two applications to interoperate, they often need to use DTDs that are the same or are structurally similar, so that the data can be mapped (at least one direction). With very flexible DTDs, like TEI, specifying the DTD might not guarantee enough structure for some applications (maybe it always needs an author). That is one reason why people are working on schemas. wunder -- Walter R.
