Could anyone tell me what literature should I read to have at least
minimal understanding of the technology?
    

All of the SAML specs to start with, and then probably Spring. Personally,
as a novice at Java, the extensive generics in the code have thrown me for a
loop, so I would need a refresher on advanced Java that you might not.
  

On top of what Scott suggested, the Java OpenSAML User's and Developer's manuals and API docs would probably be good:

There are also some very high level developer docs started on the IdP, albeit minimal:
