Re: [xdi] Prototypical use case attempt: Registration

[Fen Labalme <fen@idcommons.org>]

Thanks Peter.  SourceID and OpenSAML/Shibboleth are definitely on our 
radar screen for our reference implementation, though we are not yet 
integrating them into our current (alpha) code base.  FYI, we (Identity 
Commons) have collected a set of links and resources we find useful 
here:  http://wiki.idcommons.net/moin.cgi/SSXDI_2fLinks

Did you get a chance to look at the EnameRegistration page?
http://xrixdi.idcommons.net/moin.cgi/XdiUseCases/EnameRegistration

There's an issue regarding the fact that we are expecting the Registry 
to generate and return an e-number associated with an e-name that is 
being registered.  We considered having the Registrar generate the 
e-number, but as it is the Registry that "defines" a community (and 
ensures uniqueness of e-names within that community) it seems that the 
Registry ought also to generate the unique e-number.

Best,
Fen
