I don't want to do into details, since this ain't the -apps list, but suffice 
it to say that the concept of resolving all public identifiers over the 
internet each and every time a document is processed, is completely beyond 
me. And I'm behind a firewall to boot. What were the XML guys thinking?

I had the XML toolchain complete and running. But I had to also install the 
Jade/DSSSL toolchain just to use DocBook XML.
