Thanks Dave, yes I am going to be using XML catalogs more.  But isn't it 
the default when running XEP (or probably the Sax parser under XEP) for 
it to try to access the URL in the SVG (or other W3C DTD)? If the W3C 
server no longer responds to this default check, then this is a basic 
level of broken-ness that would have to be fixed out of the box one way 
or another. Not to pick on XEP, I think it's a good product. Other tools 
will be broken by this as well.
