I just got rid of it. (And we don't want to go in the same trap as we did with the current lyx format: defining hierarchy by use of attributes instead of structure.) And to make the enumerated lists as above... not easy. You have to do massive fiddling with the internal structure when writing... and the same again when reading. Please look at the latest version of the DTD. And it is not really a prototype DTD anymore... (but sure it can use some more work)
