Bug#466062: please ship SaxonB documentation (not only the JavaDoc stuff)

Package: libsaxonb-java-doc
Version: 9.0-2
Severity: normal

The -doc package associated to SaxonB only ships the JavaDoc API
documentation. This is cool and useful, but several other stuff which is
available as documentation on the SaxonB website is missing, though
useful. The stuff I'm missing is available on the web starting at
http://www.saxonica.com/documentation/index/intro.html (internally, it
also points to the JavaDoc stuff which is already shipped in Debian).

Can you please ship the missing documentation as part of the -doc
package?

Some remarks:

- the website states that the documentation comes as a separate package
  from the software download, and that that package is available under
  the name "saxon-resources9-n.zip" both from SourceForge and from
  Saxonica.com. However, I'm unable to find it on the former; on the
  latter a direct link is
  http://www.saxonica.com/download/saxon-resources9-0-0-1.zip

- the documentation introduction states that the docs come containing
  both documentation for SaxonB and for SaxonSA, I don't know if it is
  worth splitting apart the two parts or not (since SaxonSA can't be
  shipped in Debian)

Cheers.
