The contract for the entity resolver (in Java) is that you return the resolved resource if you found it, null otherwise. If you return null, the parser might try something else or might retrieve the resource. Today I discovered that Xerces doesn't follow redirects. I guess it's time to (optionally) ignore that contract.
