So OpenSAML 2.0 will support all versions of SAML?  What does this
mean for current users of OpenSAML?  Do OpenSAML 1.1 and 2.0 run side
by side, or does one preclude the other?

So the SAML 1.1 support in OpenSAML 2.0 can not be used as a drop-in
replacement for OpenSAML 1.1?

Will OpenSAML 2.0 support the SAML 1.x metadata specification?  If so,
is this support tightly integrated with OpenSAML 2.0 or can the
metadata bits be used in conjunction with OpenSAML 1.1?

Thanks,
Tom
