I've  tickets with the 2 SPs (of those 5 entities) and I'm
optimistic this will be handled in time in this case.

The 3 remaining IdPs with 1024 bit keys are
https://idp.uniroma3.it/idp/shibboleth
https://login.ntua.gr/idp/shibboleth
https://aai.sztaki.hu/idp

Maybe colleagues from IDEM, GRNET and eduID.hu respectively will want
to help those institutions perform a key rollover.

But certainly for existing, possibly old entities from member
federations coming into the aggregate having clear rules in place
would be preferrable.
