Its only tangentially related to acegi, and the rest of you might have
seen this already, but RSA have relaxed the licensing conditions for
their SAML patents:

This is pretty much the same as before (royalty-free if you don't sue
us) but they've dropped the requirement for getting the license
agreement signed by a board member - or in the usual integration
scenarios, signed by members of the board of each company involved...
which took forever. Its now pretty much as free as ASL 2.0 stuff
(which has a similar patent defense clause), but the same clause still
makes SAML GPL-incompatible.

Still, superb news.
