    • Spring
    • Extension points via pluggable Interfaces
  • Administration
    • How to write and plug in an extension

Who?

Probably Yale T&P doing tag team.

Intended audience

Developers already using CAS 2 and interested in CAS 3 and developers new to CAS.

Presentation format

Include interactive CAS in action aspects. Participants would download a quickstart before seminar / at beginning of seminar and then would be able to try out using CAS and configuring CAS during the seminar, working through some exercises to demonstrate extension points and flexibility. Drew expressed interest in putting together quick start / examples when the time comes.

Responding to Sarah

Action item: Andrew to respond to Sarah Arnott, uP prog comm, wrt info about our seminar.

Yale-Rutgers collaboration

Exception hierarchy

Action item: Howard to contribute input wrt exceptional conditions associated with cert authentication, other authn methods?

Follow up on speculative non-interactive login code

Andrew posted Wiki page. Most important architectural piece to move from this code into the HEAD is the enhanced Authn Manager to take multiple credentials and to return an enhanced response. Action item: Howard to contribute this improvement into the CAS 3 HEAD.

Resources

Andrew expressed concern about being less available to contribute to this project as Sakai-uPortal integration responsibilities scale up. Howard reminded the group of his Shibboleth responsibilities and the upcoming 1.3 release of that product.
