Ok, See I that in the UK metadata.

I am experimenting with setting up a local federation.  It appears as  
if the issues is related to my metadata (which I *have* validated  
using xmlsectool). The scoping filter works when I access the same SP  
using the same IdP via the InCommon metadata.  I diffed my IdP's  
entries in the two files and nothing jumped out.

I looked at the SOAP response, and the only differences are the  
AssertionIDs and the InResponseTos.  I'm reading the shibd.log, and in  
the transaction the first difference is..

We're using the attribute-policy.xml as distributed w/ the SP source code.
The only difference in the transaction (as far as I can tell) is which  
file the SP uses for the IdP's metadata.

I'm open to suggestions.
