There is no documentation for it yet other than an IETF document[1] I
wrote up describing the front-end of the system.

The basic goal of the project is to help with the technical
infrastructure needed for inter-federation. It attempts to answer the
question "how do I read in all these metadata documents, verify them,
munge them, and spit them back out again as something useful to a
different group".

It is not, I would say, something the average IdP/SP deployer would
run. It's much more likely to be run by organizations that facilitate
the interactions of many IdPs and SPs, like a federation.

The code is also not yet ready for public consumption, it's still
being worked on. Some APIs are still changing, etc. If you want to
follow along you can find docs pulling in opensaml3 here:
