Shib 2.5, extracting contacts from metadata

I have not started to play with the new Shib 2.5 beta yet, but ContactPerson can show up in multiple places inside of SAML2 Metadata, so you may need to clarify where in the SAML 2 Metadata this ContactPerson element lies (as a part of the IDPSSODescriptor, part of the EntityDescriptor, or some place else?).  It may be necessary to document where in the metadata the Shibboleth SP looks for attributes?

Subject: Shib 2.5, extracting contacts from metadata

My SP just dumps out the attributes that it receives; its not displaying
any Contact values.

I've pasted in my Contacts metadata elements, and my shibboleth2.xml
element -- can anyone see any obvious errors ? Other than the misuse of
GivenName.  ;-)

Thanks!

        <ContactPerson contactType="technical">
                <GivenName>Steven Carmody</GivenName>
                <EmailAddress>Steven_Carmody at brown.edu</EmailAddress>
        </ContactPerson>

<AttributeExtractor type="Metadata" DisplayName="displayName"
errorURL="errorURL"
                Description="description" InformationURL="informationURL"
                OrganizationName="organizationName" >

                        <ContactPerson id="contact-technical" contactType="technical"
formatter="$GivenName $EmailAddress " />

</AttributeExtractor>
