I've proposed a XML 1.0 validation transform for consideration. http://www.w3.org/Signature/Drafts/xmldsig-core/#sec-XMLValidation $Revision: 1.124 $ on $Date: 2001/09/14 18:50:30 $ If people find this acceptable, I will then make it clear that the default processing is well-formed. (Also, I ask two questions: which URI should we use for the algorithm, and do we need to distinguish in schema between strict and laxly valid?) On Tuesday 11 September 2001 08:09, merlin wrote: > 2.
