Shibboleth Developers

[Chad La Joie <>]

I also gave a talk on this subject at McShib on Friday.  Ian recorded 
the audio so I believe Andy is planning on putting up the slides and 
audio on the McShib site.

Also, a claim I've made before is that most of the people/frameworks 
that claim they are ready to do SAML and web services are, in fact, not 
ready.  So one of the things I've committed to do is document, and write 
up some very basic code, to get SAML from the IdP and into the hands of 
the developers.  The idea being that this will allow people to move on 
to the hard, nothing-to-with-shib, part of the problem; getting their 
frameworks/apps to actually work with SAML.
