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

[Lukas <Lukas.Wringer AT rz.uni-augsburg.de>]

Hi,

a surprise very much indeed - I only heard of this as an offshoot side 
project of an eduroam idp that didn't like the official App. 

This app is unknown, untested and we have no experience with it. (Also you 
may want to change the App icon to the eduroam Logo ;-) )

- Does it support all EAP Types? 
- Will it configure the (Alt)Subject-Match entry?
- What are the advantages of this App compared to the original CAT App?
- Are there any known issues? 

Greetings, Lukas
