Larry,

Although I understand it's a minor error, I wonder whether it is more 
appropriate to distribute DSpace with XSLTDisseminationCrosswalk 
commented out in the dspace.cfg.

In my mind it's inappropriate to have any setting in dspace.cfg be a 
"default" setting if that default action is to throw an error in the log 
file.

It can be made especially annoying if your institution customizes the 
log4j settings such that you receive emails whenever ERROR level 
messages occur in the log file. :)

So, assuming there's no reason why the XSLTDisseminationCrosswalk should 
be enabled in the dspace.cfg, I'll go in and comment it out for the 
upcoming 1.5.2 release.
