[osis-core] Request for OSIS "unofficial" DTD

[Kirk Lowery]

Patrick (and Steve),

<hoping_not_to_be_asking_for_a_lot>
I recommend that for each major release of OSIS, that automagic 
utilities be used to also generate a corresponding DTD. Why? Because 
there's not much XML software out there that handles Schemas (e.g., my 
preferred environment -- emacs psgml mode --  does not). Until there's 
better general schema suppport in software generally, having a DTD can 
help OSIS be used more broadly.

I recognize there may be content model problems, and that the DTD 
might have to be tweaked after generation. That's why I don't suggest 
it be done for every point release, but certainly for the main releases.
