SAML extension - supported? or When it will be available as Spring Security Extension

[sivaspring]

Hi all,

SAML project page in Spring source security is empty: http://static.springsource.org/sprin...aml/index.html

Is this project still in active development? Will it be supported by SpringSource? I'm currently working to integrate with ADFS for a SSO solution for a Spring MVC-based website . I'd like to know that when SAML Extension will be available to use with spring security.

Thanks!

Siva

Spring SAML is not officially supported by Spring, as an extension it is managed by an external party (in this case a gentleman called Vladimír Schäfer). You can see the activity of this project by looking at the git commits (http://git.springsource.org/spring-security/se-security). From what I can see spring-saml was last updated on Jan 6 2012

We are using the Spring SAML extension ourselves but in our case we forked the code so we could get some control over the release schedule and fix issues when required.
