Subject: wrt: [security-services] proposed SAML artifact definition
prior msg: Re: [security-services] proposed SAML artifact definition http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200409/msg00000.html So, absent any further comments, I'll move on next weeks official sstc call that we adopt this text for the SAML Artifact definition.. SAML artifact A small, fixed-size, structured data object pointing to a typically larger, variably-sized SAML protocol message. SAML artifacts are designed to be embedded in URLs and conveyed in HTTP messages, such as HTTP response messages with "3xx Redirection" status codes, and subsequent HTTP GET messages. In this way, a service provider may indirectly, via a user agent, convey a SAML artifact to another provider, who may subsequently dereference the SAML artifact via a direct interaction with the supplying provider, and obtain the SAML protocol message. Various characteristics of the HTTP protocol and user agent implementations provided the impetus for concocting this approach. The HTTP Artifact binding section of [SAMLBind] defines both the SAML Artifact format and the SAML HTTP protocol binding incorporating it. thanks, JeffH
