[ebxml-msg] Re: xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

Title: FW: ebxml message schema

It is unfortunate that the contents of 

 

http://ebxml.org/project_teams/transport/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

 

and 

 

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ebxml-msg/schema/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

 

do not match. I believe that both represent 
snapshots downloaded from some W3C site at different times.

 

Now that XMLDSIG has become a W3C Recommendation, I 
don't think the ebxml-msg TC should keep some old snapshot of 
xmldsig-core-schema.xsd at the location

 

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ebxml-msg/schema/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

 

I suppose the file

 

http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

 

is the official one that goes with the W3C 
Recommended version of XMLDSIG. I suggest that we modify msg-header-2_0.xsd to 
reference the above file. If we choose not to remove the file

 

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ebxml-msg/schema/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

 

we should at least update it with the contents of 

 

http://www.w3.org/TR/xmldsig-core/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

  schema

  

  
Hi 
We have noticed that the xmldsig 
  schema imported in the version 2 of the 
message schema has a different 
  location from the one used in the cpa/cpp 
schema. This in itself is not a 
  problem, however these schema’s definitions 
are different yet both use the 
  same namespace. This plays havoc with our 
object mapping tool’s notion 
  that same namespaces means similar schema defs.

>From 
  msg-header-2_0.xsd we get: 
<import 
  namespace="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#" 
  schemaLocation="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ebxml-msg/schema/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd"/>

>From 
  above location (snip) 
<element 
  name="SignatureValue" type="ds:SignatureValueType"/> 
<complexType name="SignatureValueType"> 
  
    <simpleContent> 
  
        <extension base="base64Binary"> 
  
            <attribute name="Id" type="ID" use="optional"/> 
  
        </extension> 
    </simpleContent> 
</complexType>

>From cpp-cpa-v1_0.xsd we 
  get
 <import namespace="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#" 
  schemaLocation="http://ebxml.org/project_teams/transport/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd"/>

>From 
  above location (same snip) ? 
<element name="SignatureValue" type="ds:CryptoBinary" />
<simpleType name="CryptoBinary">
    <restriction base="binary">
?       <encoding value="base64" /> 
? </restriction>
?</simpleType>

Would you please consider giving a different 
  namespace to the later version.
