Shibboleth Developers

[Nate Klingenstein <>]

One of the eventual questions would presumably be, "Which platform will 
you be deploying Shibboleth on?" and heavens forbid, "Which web server 
will you be using to host Shibboleth?"  I expect many of the questions 
to write themselves as I start to break the deploy guide into multiple 
pieces.

This would all be fed into a PHP script which would use your answers to 
build a table of contents which then just links to individual pages, 
which wouldn't be very difficult to maintain at all.
