   Section 3.1.4 of the XQueryX Recommendation unfortunately links to

   http://www.w3.org/2005/qt-applets/xqueryApplet.html

   Reopening as it seems this is an error in the spec.

Good catch, Mike.  It's not completely clear what to do about this.  Obviously,
we can issue an Erratum that replaces that link with a link to the version of
the Applet that was current when the XQuery spec went to Recommendation status,
but is that the right thing to do? 

Another choice is to issue an Erratum that replaces the link with one to the
version of the Applet that Andrew identified.  But is that the right thing? 
After all, that link might be invalid in another week or month or quarter. 

Ideally, wouldn't it be great if we had a single URI that always pointed to the
"latest" version 1.0 Applet?  Is this the right approach, or would it be better
to issue and re-issue Errata to update the Applet links every time the Applet
is updated?
