I find some problems in the last "valid example" (signature-example-dsa.xml)
in Section 9 of XML Signature Syntax and Processing (Second Edition) .


1)
<CanonicalizationMethod
Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-xml-c14n-20000710">

This URI is obsolete.

2)

<SignatureMethod Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#dsa">

"-sha1" is missing.


3)

<Transform Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#null"/>

No such algorithms.


4)

<P>...</P><Q>...</Q><G>...</G><Y>...</Y>

This is inappropriate as a "Valid example" (the title of Section 9).
