Evolving Attribute Release Policies for campuses

Correct, Scott: no connection. I entered IDP-970 into Jira yesterday as a suggestion to address this as a follow-up to my discussion on this list about that last week.

And Peter's correct: if required/optional could be made available to the consent page, it would make sense with per-attribute consent enabled to only make the optional attributes selectable; required couldn't' be unchecked.

Just a point of clarification...I may be misremembering something, but at present I don't think there is any connection between the metadata's list of attributes requested and the consent feature. The UIInfo extension is used, but I think that's it.

I'm aware there are people who want a connection made, just saying it's not there at the moment.

As I said on the MACE-Dir call yesterday, I believe that the basis of the R&S work was very much to avoid selective release of any attributes in the bundle, and I don't think it's a good idea to combine those concepts.
