When are we doing this? Work started in 2022 but has accelerated into actual development work in 2024 after Board approval of our multi-year roadmap that includes this work.

• Source Code

  • The new Java “service” that will replacing the existing dependencies is in the java-plugin-shibd.git repository with the unwieldy placeholder name of Shibboleth SP Service.

  • Protocol support will be added via additional plugins, starting with SAML (java-plugin-shibd-saml.git). OpenID will come later on in the cycle via a similar plugin project.

  • The existing cpp-sp.git repository will continue to exist and work will be done on a branch for now. I suspect we may start over to produce the new agents by cloning the old repo.
