Eve,
There was brief discussion on the last focus call. The main issue was
the term "SAML customizations". The suggestion was to replace that by
"SAML Profiles, Bindings and Extensions". Some documentation may be
found in the
minutes:

Subject: Re: [security-services] "Registration" process for third-party
SAML customizations
Forgot to bring this up on today's call. Any comments? I don't think
we particularly need to rush to get this settled as long as we do it by
the time V2.0 is final; it probably needs a quorate discussion, so
that'll be Nov 9. (I think Mary McRae also wanted a chance to convince
me that we should be using the OASIS Registry for this...)
