Hi Justin

Currently we use cas-client-core.jar version 3.1.12, the new version of
spring security needs version 3.3.3.

The API of org.jasig.cas.client.session.SingleSignOutHandler has changed.
This is the reason for the compile errors.

Not easy to solve, will have a lookt at it.

Cheers
Christian
