Wait, what method are we talking about?


The method read(DataInputStream). It's poorly  documented, but it reads a
DTD in an unspecified binary format. The default DTD is stored in this
format in a file named html32.bdtd (or html401.bdtd, in the case of the
recent contribution).
As Alexey pointed out, there is no method to write a DTD, so maybe nobody
uses the method read() anyway. But I see no point in having a public method
that nobody can use. So I think we can:
1) Ask Sun to release the specification (if there is one)
or
2) Figure it out, and document it
or
3) Release our own specification
