Hi Liam,

I am assuming that any XML digital signature tool will produce a correct:
<ds:Signature>
...
</ds:Signature>
Hence, there is no benefit to me validating the <ds:Signature> against an XML Schema. And there is no benefit to my <Document> schema importing and referencing the XML Schema for digsig.

That's a good point. However, for my particular situation I only need validation.
Thanks Liam!
