Description fd 2009-06-29 13:02:54 UTC 
When a URI contains unwise characters, Resource.parseUri attempts to encode them and try again. The "try again" code takes for granted that baseUri is not null. It may not be the case!

Example: running the Checker on http://live.com throws the exception (a link contains a "," character in the query string part).

Fixed Resource.parseUri to handle the case when baseUri is null.
