In my 0.8.0 release of XMLTransform, I failed to pass the SystemID for the XSLT
to applyStylesheet()  which made it impossible to do things like

xsl:include "../foo.xsl"

I fixed this in CVS.   I will release 0.8.1 with the fix RSN...

I can't speak for Jean, but I am pretty sure it will feel safer for folks to use
when alpha3 comes out.  Then there will be a pre-built version, rather than a
CVS snapshot (sounds scary :)

Also, the OASIS catalog support sounds great!  I will
certainly make use of that as soon as alpha3 hits.
