I think packaging CAS is a fine idea and certainly have no objections, but
if you're still in the evaluation stage for a web authentication system,
you may want to also look at WebAuth, which is already packaged for
Debian.

See http://webauth.stanford.edu/ for more information, including a
comparison of features (which alas doesn't include details about CASv2,
since the last time I looked I couldn't find any useful documentation --
this may be better now).
