But it still uses --nonet in that step, right? So it doesn't use the network at all, the mapping from the canonical stylesheet URL to a local file is done by the system's XML catalog, /etc/xml/catalog on my Fedora box. I thought we could do the same for the actual transformation rules too, using the canonical URL with --nonet and letting the system map it to a local file, and failing if the file is not present, because --nonet prevents it fetching a remote stylesheet. I suspect this is fine for the majority of people now and good enough for 4.6 Jonathan
