RE: [saml-dev] IdP DS Protocol and Profile

["Rod Widdowson" <rdw@steadingsoftware.com>]

"To provide for future extensibility, multiple "flavors" of this discovery
profile can be defined and selected using a URI-valued policy query string
parameter.

Currently, only a policy of
"urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:profiles:SSO:idp-discovery-protocol:single" is
defined and acts as the default value. Additional policies MAY specify
alternate or additional behavior to that defined in section 2.4 as long as
an alternate policy value is supplied."
