If a rule binding is specified using an absolute URI (including the baseURI), then the validator is unable to detect the matching document.  For example, if the base URI is http://interop.serviceml.org, and there is a document with an alias defined as "Student3" and a rule with an alias defined as "StudentIDRule", then a rule binding that binds those two together can be constructed either of the following ways:

     <ruleBinding>
    	<documentAlias>http://interop.serviceml.org/Student3</documentAlias>
    	<ruleAlias>http://interop.serviceml.org/StudentIDRule</ruleAlias>
    </ruleBinding>

     <ruleBinding>
    	<documentAlias>Student3</documentAlias>
    	<ruleAlias>StudentIDRule</ruleAlias>
    </ruleBinding>

Currently, only the abbereviated URI (i.e. the one without the baseURI prepended) results in a correct match.
