IdPv3 Extension Installation and Configuration

[Marvin Addison]

[right list this time; sorry for the noise]

I getting back into the CAS protocol work and the alpha distribution
and installation instructions have provided enough to plan an
installation and configuration strategy. I'd like to outline my plans
here to get your feedback.

I plan to ship an archive (zip/tar.gz) generated from an assembly that
contains the following items:

1. cas-protocol-$VERSION.jar
2. cas-protocol-beans.xml
3. cas-protocol-flow.xml
4. protocol views
5. idp.properties template containing additional CAS configuration properties

Installation will consist of copying the artifacts to the appropriate locations:

1. Jar -> $idp.home/war/WEB-INF/lib
2. Spring XML -> $idp.home/conf/cas
3. Webflow XML -> $idp.home/flows/cas
4. Views -> $idp.home/views/cas

Configuration will require light editing of existing configuration files:

1. Add reference(s) to CAS webflow XML in
$idp.home/system/conf/webflow-config.xml
2. Update idp.properties as necessary with CAS properties using
template idp.properties as reference

That process sounds straightforward, both to describe and perform. Is
this what you guys had in mind for extensions?

Thanks,
M
