Hi Neal – (1) No – I don’t know of such a beast, but it might be possible to create one using the web agent code as a basis. (2) I’m not sure they should. If CAS is working for you, then great, leave it alone. If you want integration with Java EE declarative and programmatic security, a bundle of agents for common containers, federation via SAML and Liberty ID-FF (coming soon) and even web services security via WS-I BSP and Liberty ID-WSF (again, coming soon), then you may well want to consider OpenSSO. (I’m not an expert on CAS, but, as far I can see, it doesn’t supply any of these).

1) Do you know of an acegi-opensso adapter that has already been wriiten or going to be written?
2) Why should somebody ditch CAS and use openSSO?

“It’s alive! Alive, I tell you!”
Your not the only one remembering it that way.

Seems you’ve verified usage that way already.

Paul - hmmm - I definitely remember the quote the way I wrote it. Maybe "Carry On Screaming" or The Quatermass Experiment?

Hi Masood - I've really not spent enough time looking at OpenID (it's on my todo list to do some more). One nugget for you - the OpenID folks were at IOS Vancouver, where there was good discussion on the differing design points of OpenID vs SAML, and a commitment (in this session) from both sides to try to meet in the middle.
