Because the stylesheets make have use of the extension library 
(http://exslt.org) to standard 1.0 XSL and different JDK's are provided with 
old versions of xerces/xalan, I put the jars I found to work into CVS. Indeed 
it is worth to discuss if we really need them. If xsltproc is installed we 
have allready a fast, reliable and working xslt processor. For all those 
people who want to use a pure java build system, it might be preferable to 
use xalan or saxon (of course, only one of them is needed). But may be they 
can download the jars as needed? I'm not sure.

In the beginning of developing the stylesheets there were havy differences 
among the three processors. I needed to program around some bugs had to use 
some cvs versions to get it running at all. But in the meanwhile the various 
incombatibilities came to a rest and it is now sufficent to use a current 
release.

Xalan 2.6.0: http://www.apache.org/dist/xml/xalan-j/xalan-j-current-bin.tar.gz
Saxon 6.5.3: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/saxon/saxon6_5_3.zip
