OpenSAML user discussion

[Prasad <>]

Hi all,

I came across several discussion where people believed that SAML can be 
used as a tool/protocol for User Provisioning. As far as my knowledge 
goes, and I am well familiar with SAML 1.X but less with SAML 2.0, I 
don't think User Provisioning is something that falls in SAMLs territory.

Is my understanding correct or am I missing something ? Also,  can 
anyone think of any use cases where SAML (1.1 and 2.0) or Liberty 
Alliance can be leveraged for doing User Provisioning ?

Thanks.
Prasad.
