Django SAML 2.0 Identity Provider

New project! http://code.google.com/p/django-saml2-idp/

The Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) 2.0 is useful for helping organizations work together. By establishing a trust relationship among their systems, their users can log into each others’ systems easily. (Ready to fill up your brain? Read more about the SAML 2.0 standard.)

Using the helpful starter code, the Google code project is now able to generate signed assertions. (As of source code revision 5.)

The first goal (version 0.1) is to implement the Web Browser SSO (SingleSignOn) Profile using the HTTP POST binding. (After that, maybe I’ll add more bindings and profiles.)

If you know SAML 2.0, I’d love to have your help!
