[saml-dev] Web Server Certificates
The Interop spec currently 
says:

 

Browser: 
users will access URLs protected by SSL. Please check to see that the 
recommended browsers (type and version number) trust the certificate root for 
the certificate you plan to use to secure your https URLs.Since 
several of the organizations involved in this demo own the roots in 
question,  (at least: Baltimore, Entrust?, RSA and Verisign) is somebody 
willing to act as a sponsor and issue short lived SSL server certificates for 
the purpose of this demo. I am sure the Burton Group would agree to some signage 
on the order of "certificates provided by...". It might be a good way to remind 
people that SAML builds on other security mechanisms, it does not replace 
them.

 

How about it guys? Any 
takers?
