Shibboleth Developers

["Paul B. Hill" <>]

Although I think this thread belongs on the shibboleth-users list 
instead of the shibboleth-dev list, I am aware of at least one 
commercial application which uses the Apache HTTP Client 
(http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/) to simulate a web browser. The 
application has been successfully used with Shibboleth.
