Thank you. Who wrote this? It's broken. There must not be an
XML Declaration in a DTD, so you must delete the first line
which says <?xml version="1.0"?>.

And the declaration for <list> is broken, it must be:

  <!ELEMENT  list  (item)+ >

so insert those parentheses. Then it will work. Save it as
tdtd.dtd

We must find out who distributes this broken DTD.

Create a new file test.xml

  <?xml version="1.0"?>
  <!DOCTYPE book SYSTEM "tdtd.dtd">

Then use C-c C-p to make Emacs read it, then C-c C-e to 
insert elements.

You must make the file name in the DocType Declaration the same
as the name of the DTD file on disk. You don't need a catalog,
just put it in the same directory as the documents you create.
