Weren't you just a little bit worried that if someone hacked the w3c site and, for example, made an optional attribute required, that it would break the entire web??? Imagine if all those XML-based B2B systems out there referenced external entities on external web-sites. Hack the site, change or remove the DTD/schema and a lot of companies are losing a lot of money. As a result, I think you'll find that most people with their wits about them will be taking a copy of standardized DTDs and referencing that instead in order to prevent such things from happening.
