If the long term plan is to remove the SAML 1 information, it's probably fine, but since I don't really see most people getting to that point easily, I would say it's simpler to have one consistent set. I don't personally like having to guess what metadata somebody is consuming. If my InCommon metadata differs, it's because I'm deliberately doing something I want to keep out of InCommon for some reason.
