Jason,

GitHub works for me, and I think will work well in general as a place to make 
this source code publicly available and collaborate-upon-able.

While the Jasig CAS website presents a new BSD license as the current CAS 
server license (because it is the current CAS server license), that's not the 
preferred or default Jasig license anymore.

Rather, Apache 2.0 is preferred over (new) BSD for its better clarity of 
protections for contributors and adopters.

See https://wiki.jasig.org/display/LIC/Jasig+Licensing+Policy

Incidentally, coming into compliance with this Jasig licensing policy is on the 
roadmap for the CAS 3.5 release, and, I believe, a blocker for that release.


The very best way you can make it legally possible for Jasig to redistribute 
your work incorporated into Jasig software products is to submit Contributor 
License Agreements.

Jonathan and myself (programmers on the project) are emailing our contributor forms today and we are also submitting the corporate level form.

After lots of discussion with our legal representative we discovered that we are able to drop the SBIR data rights notice. I'm hoping to have our code up on github by the time I go home today.

It's taken us a while internally to get to this state and I apologize for what probably seems like slow progress. By the way, we're also contacting the django-cas and the mod_auth_cas developers as we modified those projects to support attribute release. We have some text for the jasig newsletter too.

I'll let you know when the code is available on github.

Thank you!
Jason
