                    This attribute indicates the source of the resource signature as a
                    URI (cf. RFC 3986).  For purposes of the resolution of relative URIs
                    the base URI is the URI of the STC, if the sourceBase attribute is
                    not specified or is specified as STC, and the URI of the referenced
                    resource if the sourceBase attribute is specified as resource.
                    
                    This allows the specification of signature sources that reside
                    inside the resource (e.g. an FMU) through relative URIs.
                    
                    For signatures that are located alongside the STC, relative URIs
                    without scheme and authority can and should be used to specify the
                    signature sources.  For signatures that are packaged inside an SSP
                    that contains this STC, this is mandatory (in this way, the STC
                    URIs remain valid after unpacking the SSP into the filesystem).
                    
                    If the source attribute is missing, the signature is provided
                    inline as contents of the Content element, which must not be
                    present otherwise.
