Hal,

I hope you are the right person to address, at least you may know the 
right person...

Trying to implement the SAML 2.0 profile of XACML v2.0 (see 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/xacml/2.0/access_control-xacml-2.0-saml-profile-spec-os.pdf) 
we found out that the XSDs which are provided on the OASIS web site 
(http://docs.oasis-open.org/xacml/2.0/access_control-xacml-2.0-saml-assertion-schema-os.xsd 
and 
http://docs.oasis-open.org/xacml/2.0/access_control-xacml-2.0-saml-protocol-schema-os.xsd) 
are invalid. They include a couple of typos, missing namespace 
declarations, etc. I attached two revised versions to this mail which 
validate correctly.

I am wondering if nobody had the same problems, especially since this 
standard was released in 2005 (and the drafts had been out even earlier, 
including the same errors).

Maybe you can send me some feedback if I did anything wrong or what the 
reason for these errors is.

Best regards,
Rüdiger

P.S.: I am using XMLSpy 2007...
