OpenSAML user discussion

[Chad La Joie <>]

Make sure you have the latest XMLTooling and OpenSAML code.  My guess is 
that your XMLTooling code is out of date.

As far as the status of the Metadata code.  It should be pretty well 
complete with the exception of digital signature support.  If you 
haven't taken a look at the OpenSAML 2 User's manual you may want to 
just review that.

I haven't yet done the documentation on metadata resolution and caching 
but I'll be working on that in just a few minutes and it will probably 
be out there within 2 hours (if not I won't have time to finish it until 
tomorrow).
