I understand the scope of your question, but I was trying to go on a tangent about administrative screens and the need for a database as a whole. As there is no wiki documentation about what types of administration screens are being considered for CAS4, I thought it would be a good time to bring it up and explore them as that conversation might answer how to deal with your specific question.
I would be interested in hearing more about the topic if you have time to digress on the subject. =) On 6/27/09 9:32 PM, "Scott Battaglia" <scott.battag...@gmail.com> wrote: > The only thing I'm asking about is whether we need an administrative interface > to store the data that's optional for SAML meta data, such as organization and > stuff.
