Title: Credentials Collector proposal for SAML 2.0...

Hi 
Irving,

 

I agree completely; I've 
thought of this use case as well.  However, it seemed easier to start with 
the translator model first, since this is the one that most people appear to 
want solved right away.  I think we can move on to model 2.3 after 
that.

 

Carlisle.

Looks good 
  overall. My main comment is that there is one important use case where model 
  2.3 (CC as local authenticator) may be the only possibility. SSL mutual 
  authentication in web servers is almost always buried in the server, so it may 
  not be possible for the AA to get itself into the middle of the 
  proof-of-possession conversation. This leaves a sort of in-between trust 
  model, where the AA can do the certificate validation but needs to trust that 
  the CC has correctly done the proof of possession.

Hi all, 

    
I've finally gotten around to 
    updating and filling out the Credentials Collector proposal.  I've 
    tried to take into account the brief discussions a few of us have had so far 
    on this topic.  Further comment/discussion is welcome, on the list and 
    perhaps in an upcoming concall.

    
Carlisle.
