| in the last XTM mime type draft, I read:
| 
| "All XTM 1.0 documents will include a DOCTYPE declaration
| that begins with ">!DOCTYPE topicMap..."

Are you sure you have the latest draft? Patrick and I have been
working on one where I corrected this stuff. I can send you the latest
one I have if you want.
 
| Is this really a requirement? 

No. See section 4.4 which carefully leaves this requirement out.

Also note that there will be XTM 1.1 as well very soon, and that
explicitly does not require this.
