Yes - do it!
On the DTD names, I think we should push the IETF to register itself somehow
with ISO, and in the meantime adopt an unregisterd FPI, naming IETF as the
owner, e.g. html.dtd: "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN//2.0"
Like Terry, I would much prefer a single file for the 2.0 DTD. It would
still be much simpler than my HTML+ DTD! I also like the suggestion that
we put together an SGML Open style catalog.
BTW I am making good progress, working with CERN, on implementing a testbed
browser for the HTML 3.0 spec. We would like to demonstrate this at the
Web conference in October.
