>>>I thought I gave the OpenSAML API and other SAML documentation (i.e., bindings, profiles, core, etc.) a good read, but I clearly missed something. So I am very curious, should/would I >>>have been able to pick this information up from either the two resources I just mentioned?

>>I knew you needed to give Zlib some parameter to make it not expect headers
