Hmm... this pulls in

http://docs.oasis-open.org/security/saml/v2.0/saml-schema-assertion-2.0.xsd
which again pulls
http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/REC-xmldsig-core-20020212/xmldsig-core-schema.xsd

Which is a dead link. This causes my client to hang, and crash after a 
timeout. This might be the client which does not know about xmldsig magic, 
or an error in the schema, but I don't think we should have a schema which 
links to something which does not exist (I doubt my client is the only 
library which has this behaviour).

Also it seems the default link has switched to https (which is good), but 
I find usage of TLS AND SAML at the same time to be a bit odd.
