<xsl:value-of select="java:java.util.Calendar.get(YEAR)"/>
will invoke the static (non-existent) method "get" in class
java.util.Calendar and pass as parameter the result of evaluating the
child-axis-expression YEAR.
Try instead:
<xsl:value-of select="java:java.util.Calendar.get($tmp, 1)">
This will invoke the non-static method "get" on the Calendar object stored
in variable $tmp and pass number 1 as parameter, which is the value of
constant Calendar.YEAR.

Johannes
