    Don is going to remind us (as well he should) that the URL is not used for
    a live retrieval from that server. So a redirect doesn't work.

    So I think this is, technically, an incompatible change. But I think it's
    one we could live with.

    The W3C Last Call Working Draft of XHTML-Print [1] changes the URL in the
    DOCTYPE from
    "http://www.xhtml-print.org/xhtml-print/xhtml-print10.dtd" to
    "http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/DTD/xhtml-print10.dtd".

    This breaks compatibility with existing implementations. Can this situation
    be handled by redirecting the xhtml-print.org url to the w3.org url? If
    so,
    how is this done?
