Directory-based MetadataProvider

[Yuji Shinozaki]

Sorry, I am talking about on the IDP.   I confused the issue by calling it a "IDP MetadataProvider".   I really meant to say "SP MetadataProvider on the IDP".

In other words:

I have a bunch of SP Metadata in separate files.  What is the best way to automate loading them into the IDP?
