Thank you Scott for this info. I thought of subclassing SAMLQuery to
provide the AssertionArtifact component of the request. If I understand
correctly, we can populate the RespondWith QName to ask for an
authentication statement back from the server and that one, the OpenSAML
code already validates properly. Is there more to it for the SOAP case?

Are these test/sample servers available for SAML developers? If so, it 
will be helpful if I can connect to them for other query types.

Thanks much,
