Hello,
Accidentally sent two posts earlier, the admin can disregard. Not enough coffee or something today.
Anyway, I posted a SR on sf.net some months ago that can be found here:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=742081&group_id=405...
Anyway, I came away with the impression that lauris didn't much care about the spirit of the W3C documentation and interpreted it to the letter whenever convenient. I didn't bother to argue the fact that the DTD does need to exist, and as mhnoyes points out, the DTD provided by W3C could just as easily be used.

No, DTD does not exist, because nobody wants to maintain it (and unmaintained DTD is much useless). Also, W3C guidelines only say, that xmlns indicator has to be valid URL, not really existing document. Also, there is 'plain-svg' saving option and --export-svg command line option, that should create pure W3C variant. So I move this to feature request category from bugs.
Anyway, I disagree that this is a Feature Request. This is a problem, not a feature I'm looking for. I realize that valid files are created, but the DTD's are part of the process. I and am wondering how this with be addressed with InkScape?
