Subject: Re: History of SAML Metadata
To put some closure on this, the original set of documents that Liberty contributed to OASIS [4] is lost AFAIK. After November 2003, ID-FF 1.2 continued to be developed (which is not surprising given that numerous SSTC members came from the Liberty Project). For the record, a complete list of the final ID-FF 1.2 archived documents is documented in wikipedia. [5] Unfortunately, a number of important historical documents are lost. In particular, Version 1.0-06 of the Liberty Metadata specification, [6] which had significant influence on an early SSTC work stream that took place between April and July 2003, is lost. For details, see the History of SAML Metadata in wikipedia. [7] The most intriguing discovery is a very early draft specification [8] dated one week after the SAML V1.0 Standard was published in November 2002. The metadata syntax used in that document is completely different from the Liberty metadata syntax. The genesis of that early metadata schema [9] appears to have been the result of a conversation between Prateek Mishra and Jeff Hodges, but other than that, its origins are unknown.
