Am I the only one confused by the 1.1 there? Would it not make sense
to rename the jar so that it is evident it's not an actual released

You're looking at unreleased Shibboleth code. There's nothing final about
anything in it. Why should we temporarily name the jar something else?

Yes, I'm working from HEAD.

It just seems intrinsically wrong to refer to it by a name that isn't accurate. Something with "beta", "nightly", or whatever would accurately reflect that it is not in fact a released version of opensaml with the version number 1.1. I was confused by it because I didn't already know what the jar was (as you do); now that I know it's not as big a deal moving forward. As for the next person to run across it, well...

I guess it's just semantics.
