FYI, I finally have a functioning and "productionalized" test instance
of mdq-server running up on shibboleth.net, port 9000 (port chosen
arbitrarily). I have switched the opensaml and IdP unit tests over to
use it rather than Ian's server.  We'll see how it goes.
There's just 1 entity in there right now, but more could easily be
added.  It's just pulling those from an externalized EntitiesDescriptor
file.

If you want to see it in action:

http://shibboleth.net:9000/entities

http://shibboleth.net:9000/entities/https%3A%2F%2Ffoo1.example.org%2Fidp%2Fshibboleth

Depending on your email client, you'll probably need to actually
copy/paste that second encoded URL into your browser to preserve the
URL-encoding of the entityID.  For me in Thunderbird, if I just click
on it, it doesn't work, b/c it gets URL-decoded first, and then goes
out over the wire un-encoded, which violates the MDQ spec.
