Stephane Nicoll closed MEAR-95.
-------------------------------

      Assignee: Stephane Nicoll
    Resolution: Won't Fix

At first, I thought that setting an empty context would do the trick but reading the DTD a bit more showed that we can't do that. You must provide a value and I understand that the '/' trick may not work on any environment. 

Unless I am missing something, the spec does not provide any standard solution for this.
