the ingenious hack #1 only works for DTDs. I am considering implementing
this directly in odd2dtd, so that when you have an empty
class, a _DUMMY_ is inserted. But it puzzles me as
to _why_ it works, since the content model _is_ ambiguous.
And what about W3C schema.

hack #2 is too complex. sorry. such a simple task
has to be easier, in my book.

sitting on the fence :-}

but I'd rather see a concrete expression of yes
or no for the principal question.....
