The mailing list for users of the eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool (CAT)

[Dubravko Voncina <dubravko.voncina AT srce.hr>]

Hello Nik,

This morning we upgraded the version of SimpleSAMLphp which we use as a SAML 
IdP Proxy for eduroam Configuration Assistant Tool.
IdP Proxy is taking advantage of some undocumented SimpleSAMLphp features, 
but since these features are undocumented, SimpleSAMLphp developers sometimes 
feel free to change them in new version of SimpleSAMLphp so we have to 
reverse engineer and patch our installations of SimpleSAMLphp every time we 
switch to a newer version.
Since eduGAIN is quite heterogeneous, there's always a chance these patches 
won't work for every IdP, but we're doing our best to solve your problem as 
soon as possible. 

Regards,
