Hi all,

I checked out the DSpace from github branch dspace-3_x. It seems the  
type-bind definition is missing in input-forms.dtd.

I agree with Joachim that the type-bind lack the strategy to define  
required fields for different document types. Also, we would like a  
function to define a field "type-bind" all types except type A. Right  
now, you probably have to list all types except type A. If you have 20  
item types, that's quite annoying.
