After reading these, I see that I erred with the <ul> outer wrapping by 
leaving out the <li>.  The following looks good:

<ul empty="true">
     <li>
     <dl newline="true" spacing="normal">
         <dt>Authorization DETs</dt>
         <dd>
             Used to assert the authorization of a DKI level.
         </dd>
         <dt>Endorsing DETs</dt>
         <dd>
             Used to assert operations within DKI level.
         </dd>
         <dt>Operational DETs</dt>
         <dd>
             Used by operational entities within DKI level
         </dd>
      </dl>
      </li>
</ul>

Though, maybe having a bullet in front of each <dt> might be nice...
