Shibboleth Developers

[Franck Borel <>]

Hi Chad,

I think people who are in the shibboleth mailing list are not that  
kind of type with CHI background. Perhaps you should place your  
request somewhere else.

I have some contacts to people who are CHI-able. If you like I can  
forward your request to them.
