Hi,

Thanks for the discussion this afternoon. I realized
I had forgotten one issue, which is sort of related to
the HS response parsing.

If a repository is configured such that it points
users to a WAYF, it points to an xhtml page (vs. a
sites.xml file).

Is it recommended that a non-html client parse the
xhtml's option elements (much in the same way it would
have to parse the xhtml form with the base-64-encoded
xml samlresponse from the HS).... or would direct
access to the WAYF's sites.xml file be provided at
some point?

Either way would be possible for us... in the html
case, there would just need to be some sort of
assurance that if you parse it according to xyz rules,
you'll always get the options...

- Chris
