Community Volunteer Positions

The CAS Steering Committee is looking for ways to offer non-technical and technical community members additional opportunities to help out. We've identified a number of key positions and we're posting the first two here:

If you're interested in either of these positions, please contact ScottS

CAS Server

Jasig Central Authentication Service (CAS) 3.3.4 has been released. This release includes a number of minor fixes and updates:

...

The release can be downloaded from the Jasig Download Center or using Maven2 with the following dependency:

Code Block
xml
xml

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.jasig.cas</groupId>
   <artifactId>cas-client-core</artifactId>
   <version>3.1.7</version>
   <type>jar</type>
   <scope>runtime</scope>
</dependency>

Note, the scope should be "compile" if you're using the CAS Client APIs.

mod_auth_cas

Mod_auth_cas has seen significant adoption and development in the past
several months. 1.0.8 is now included in Debian (lenny-backports and
squeeze) and Ubuntu (karmic), so installation is as simple as 'apt-get
install libapache2-mod-auth-cas'.

Work progresses toward an eventual 1.0.9 release of mod_auth_cas. Trunk
now includes support for SAML validation and logout, and includes
various performance and bug fixes. The mod_auth_cas developers are
seeking testers to validate the new functionality before tagging a 1.0.9
release, and as always, are looking for other developers interested in
working on this Apache module.

ClearPass Extension

Development continues towards a 1.0.0.GA release of ClearPass. The trunk of ClearPass has been updated to support CAS 3.3.3 and CAS 3.3.4. Work is ongoing to integrate ClearPass with the latest uPortal releases via a patch (to add support for the Jasig CAS Client).

OpenRegistry

We're pleased to announce the 0.1-M1 release of OpenRegistry! OpenRegistry 0.1-M1 supports the following use cases:

  • Generate Activation Keys (RESTful API)
  • Invalidate Activation Keys (RESTful API)
  • Verify Activation Keys (RESTful API)
  • Add Person (RESTful API)

This is an important first step towards the development of a collaborative open-source identity management registry. We encourage you to read our use cases to understand more about the project and to try it out!

The release can be downloaded from:

The artifacts are also available via the Jasig Maven2 Repository for those who wish to use a Maven2 WAR Overlay.

We have instructions available:

We're continually improving our documentation so consider it to be a state of "flux." We instead encourage you to join our lists:

We look forward towards quickly marching towards a 0.1-M2 release! Subscribe to our dev list to follow the details!
