Shibboleth Developers

[Valery Tschopp <>]

Hi Scott,

Thanks a lot for the support. Our streaming team relies heavily on OSX 
10.5 Xserve machines and they really need to find a solution for the 
Shibboleth issue.

So I tried to compile Xerces with the OSX icu transcoder, but I got a 
error about ICUROOT (see below), any idea?

Cheers,
Valery
