Re: [xsl] Article: Early review of Java 9 XML catalogs

["Michael Kay mike@xxxxxxxxxxxx" <xsl-list-service@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just a little sad that what this does is to make a badly-designed interface a
little bit more accessible.

For example, the confusion in the URIResolver interface between resolving a
relative URI and dereferencing an absolute URI.

Sadly, the strong backwards compatibility policy in the JDK means that such
design errors can never be corrected.
