Hi Scott,

I'd like to know convention of Shibboleth project e.g. Naming Rules in Java Coding Conventions.
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/DEV/Java+Coding+Conventions

From the point of view of existing parameters,
I found both uppercase and lowercase parameters in Shibboleth Wiki.
https://wiki.shibboleth.net/confluence/display/SHIB2/NativeSPSessionCreationParameters
"forceAuthn" (changed from SAML term "ForceAuthn")
"isPassive" (changed from SAML term "IsPassive")
"SPNameQualifier"

cf. from SAML specification
"RelayState"

Sincerely,
Takeshi
