Why did you make your own DTD ? Instead of using the standard TEI one ?
Because this is the way TEI is supposed to be used. Nobody uses the full TEI DTD as basis for a markup project. You decide which subset of TEI you need for your project and generate a DTD (yourself or with a tool called the Pizza Chef). There is even a standard way to extend TEI if the full TEI doesn't contain the tags you want. I used this standard way to add some presentational tags, to help the automatic generation of file formats. Still my conversion tools will handle almost any standard TEI-lite file.
