There is a .htaccess in this directory. Its purpose is to deliver DTDs and associated resources to some impoverished XML tools that do not use the Catalog Entity Resolver. These resources are made available on the forrest.apache.org website via an 'svn co' of this directory. See further info at ./index.html FIXME: There are similar .htaccess at both forrest.apache.org/dtd/ and forrest.apache.org/entity/ until we merge the entity sets into the /dtd/ directory.
