Subject: Re: [security-services] problem with B&P alternative SAML artifactformat... Treat this a s an ISSUE or Editorial?


I meant to ask about that yesterday, having come across it when I did 
the cm:artifact changes, and clean forgot...  I agree that this should 
be considered an editorial error.  We had better make sure there's an 
E/PE number for it, so people can track it, though!
