A little humour: As if to underscore the problems that arise with signing a manifest full of XLinks to the resources we really want to validate... The URL in the XML DSig Requirements document used to indicate the XML specification itself is the 'old' one and doesn't work anymore. So, if the URL were left as-is, and we digitally signed the XML-DSIG requirements, then the signature would not be completely verifiable since the information we really care about is what the XML spec says, not where it used to be. And we couldn't change the URL in such documents to point to the new location without breaking the signature. The URL should be changed to : http://www.w3.org/TR/1998/REC-xml-19980210 John Boyer Software Development Manager UWI.Com -- The Internet Forms Company
