Treat http: and https: URIs as equivalent for the purpose of resolution. The web used
to
be served over http: and many existing catalog files contain http: system identifiers.
Today, the web is largely served over https: and many documents contain https: system
identifiers. If this property is true, that distinction will be ignored during catalog
lookup,
http://example.com/sample.dtd will match https://example.com/sample.dtd.
Note: this has *no effect* on the URIs returned by the resolver or retrieved over the web. It only effects catalog lookup for system identifiers and URIs.
