Agenda:

1) Current programming issues/questions

2) Discuss the requirements for the native java target version, and 
develop a strategy for the initial  implementation. To jumpstart the 
conversation, I'd like to use a paper written by Howard Gilbert of 
yale. It contains background information, and explores what it would 
mean to integrate CAS + Shib.

In the longer term,  we're going to have to pay attention to how the 
code  and functionality resulting from this project will fit into, 
will interact with, the more complex service environments we already 
see in the java  world (and which we'll just see  more of,  over the 
next 24  months).

In the first stage, tho, I think we're interested in a somewhat 
simpler situation -- an  implementation that's roughly comparable to 
the current apache one.

CAS is a centralized authn service, and is used with web based 
applications. It functions as an SSO service.info about CAS is 
available at http://www.yale.edu/tp/cas/  .
