Well, there are many software which wish to have DTD available
somewhere, and catalog.xml is not available anytime (for example, when
opening documents via Internet). For example, this might be online
markup validator (please try http://validator.w3c.org/).

Yes, the DTD path used at this time looks much more consistent, than
just "/share/...". May be it is possible to point onto DTDs in such
way, where HTTP server will return it on request. For example, via
redirect directives, HTML redirects, or symbolic links...

Good to hear. This would be valuable change (notwithstanding the
DOCLANG is not so dirty hack ;)

As I see the NetBSD documentation is going more and more towards to its
own XML format. I'm have nothing against this movement, so as it will
provide more covenient ways for many things (like <port>). But is this
means that we could more freely implement our own (well documented, of
course) extensions?
