Fwd: XMLSecTool validateSchema states ID is not a valid value for 'NCName' using MDA 0.7

[Dan McLaughlin]

Hi Chad,

I'm trying to use the new version of MDA which includes your fix for a
bug that I opened…

https://issues.shibboleth.net/jira/browse/MDA-58?page=com.atlassian.streams.streams-jira-plugin:activity-stream-issue-tab

I'm seeing that the new stage does add the ID, but when I run the
metadata through xmlsectool.sh --validateSchema --schemaDirectory
/tmp/mda/xsd/ --inFile /tmp/mda/federation/federation-metadata.xml

I get the following error stating the ID is not valid for NCName.

The ID xsd:ID field, which is basically an NCName, which must start
with a Letter (or an underscore "_" ), but the value you generate
starts with a Digit.

See: http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#ID
And: http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xml-names-19990114/#NT-NCName
