If not him than me, since I was the one that forgot to change the text. ;)

I'll update it and make sure it's fixed in the next release.

Rest easy. That's just an error in the RELEASE-NOTES.txt file, it
apparently hasn't been updated since the Technology Preview releases. We
will correct the verbage. OpenSAML2 became fully supported for production
use, including stable API's etc as of release 2.0.0 (mid-March 2008), and
this includes the just-released 2.1.0. (Actually the API's were pretty
stable quite awhile before that).

Thanks for pointing out.

I'm working on using the OpenSAML2 library for our service provider code,
and I just got around to reading the release note for the 2.1.0 release, and
this snippet:
"This technology preview is meant as an early release to allow developers
to comment on the structure and APIs. No guarantee about the stability of
the
APIs are made; they will likely change. This release should NEVER be used
in a
production system."

is putting my boss off. Is this just a case of CYA? Is anyone using this
code in a production environment? It seems relatively mature, what's the
problem? When is it anticipated to be stable enough to get rid of that last
line?
thanks,
Bleu
