Josh,
I actually gave that presentation about 2 weeks ago!  Funny that it showed up.

I wouldn't think CAS support would pose that big of a problem, it should be 
'easy enough' to integrate phpCAS into the authentication flow...  The 
Shibboleth integration works great for us, but considering I have all the 
different pieces at my disposal, I would be happy to look into it.  Just don't 
put a timeframe on it!

Hi Junaid,

Thanks for your interest in adding CAS authentication support!

I just found this presentation Joe Fischetti did about a year ago:

https://nercomp.org/uploadFiles/2E627000000AD.filename.Marist-SSO_IDMV2.pdf

I only skimmed it and didn't see anything about VCL specifically, but Joe is 
one of the VCL admins at Marist.  So, he may be able to provide some insight.

I also just created a JIRA issue last week to track some changes I started 
working on to make authentication more modular.  I hope to have a good chunk 
committed within the next few weeks.  The basic idea is to make each 
authentication method a class built on a base class.  I added comments to the 
JIRA issue to describe what I have come up with so far.
