My guess is: The import would fail but frankly I never tried it without these 
files...

BTW: For AqBanking I'm currently working on an internal OFX parser which 
doesn't need those DTD files (because I just realized the XML parser of 
Gwenhywfar3 is able to read and parse OFX files, too. I just needed to add 
some code which actually makes sense of the data read).

Martin
