Hi Steven and All,

My apologies for the late feedback, but important deadlines have  
prevented me to follow this mailing list with the deserved attention.  
I think I've now read all relevant messages in this thread and in  
what it concerns our project needs everything that has been proposed  
(and I understand) for Shibboleth 2.0 and 2.1 seems suitable.

Steven, I know that you have already mentioned at the shibboleth- 
users mailing list that the Constrained Delegation Profile (or its  
new incarnation after the Shibboleth/Liberty/OASIS standardisation  
effort) should go to version 2.1. We understand and agree that there  
are other priorities and external dependencies. We also think this  
profile is really a feature that a lot of national efforts (e.g.  
JISC, SWITCH, MAMS) and projects (e.g. SPIE, GridShib) are dependent  
on, in order to achieve effective solutions using uniquely  
Shibboleth. So, I would like to ask you not to forget this profile  
and included it in Shibboleth 2.x as soon as possible.

Hope this is useful and timely.
Regards,
