     8 within a company or organization.  Permission is granted to
       
     9 redistribute the file <code>xmltest.zip</code> containing this
       
    10 collection to third parties provided that no modifications of any kind

    12 collection in any other form is not granted.
       
    13 <P>
       
    14 The collection is structured into three directories:
       
    15 <DL>
       
    16 <DT><CODE>not-wf</CODE>
       
    17 <DD>this contains cases that are not well-formed XML documents
       
    18 <DT><CODE>valid</CODE>
       
    19 <DD>this contains cases that are valid XML documents
       
    20 <DT><CODE>invalid</CODE>
       
    21 <DD>this contains cases that are well-formed XML documents
       
    22 but are not valid XML documents
       
    23 </DL>
       
    24 <P>
       
    25 The <CODE>not-wf</CODE> and <CODE>valid</CODE> directories each have
       
    26 three subdirectories:
       
    27 <DL>
       
    28 <DT>
       
    29 <CODE>sa</CODE>
       
    30 <DD>
       
    31 this contains cases that are standalone (as defined in XML) and do not
       
    32 have references to external general entities
       
    33 <DT>
       
    34 <CODE>ext-sa</CODE>
       
    35 <DD>
       
    36 this contains case that are standalone and have references to external
       
    37 general entities
       
    38 <DT>
       
    39 <CODE>not-sa</CODE>
       
    40 <DD>
       
    41 this contains cases that are not standalone
       
    42 </DL>
       
    43 <P>
       
    44 In each directory, files with a <CODE>.xml</CODE> extension are the
       
    45 XML document test cases, and files with a <CODE>.ent</CODE> extension
       
    46 are external entities referenced by the test cases.
       
    47 <P>
       
    48 Within the <CODE>valid</CODE> directory, each of these three
       
    49 subdirectories has an <CODE>out</CODE> subdirectory which contains an
       
    50 equivalent <A HREF="canonxml.html">canonical XML</A> document for each
       
    51 of the cases.
       
    52 <P>
       
    53 <P>
       
    54 Bug reports and contributions of new test cases are welcome.
