In the interim is there a module/JIRA/SVN space we'd like to track this in? Or 
does it perhaps make sense to look at incubating clearpass? I'd be willing to 
put in a proposal if others are interested.

Hi Jason et. al. -

We are in fact very interested in attracting a wider user base and shared 
maintenance for CAS ClearPass.  While it is, as you point out elsewhere, a less 
secure method than pure CAS, we do feel it is a safer, more robust alternative 
than others we've seen for doing single sign-on to "CAS-averse" applications. 
:-)  On that basis we would like to promote it and grow a larger community of 
support around it.

It sounds like your patch would be most appreciated.  The CAS Steering 
Committee will formalize the acceptance of contributions for ClearPass in the 
near future.

I've cc'ed the uportal list to let more people know about ClearPass.

Thanks,
Jonathan

Hi Everyone,

Is anyone else using (or interested in using?) the CAS Clearpass work with
was contributed by Sacramento State and Unicon?

We've adopted it and integrated it into our build, and recently encountered
and fixed an issue related to the fact that the current JSPs don't properly
encode XML entities (since JSP EL in Tomcat doesn't XML escape the same way
c:out does) and so the password passback was non-functional in clients that
tried to XML parse the response (as opposed to doing string parsing like the
provided uPortal security context)

I could put together a patch, but I know that code is currently in the
Sandbox, and doesn't look to have a JIRA or any other infrastructure, so
thought I'd ask here first -- is there interest in maintaining and perhaps
incubating/sandboxing this code? I know it is somewhat unclean in terms of
the CAS protocol and architecture, but there are a number of portal
use-cases especially that are difficult to implement without access to user
credentials.
