Good idea, Nate. Will do.

If by supported you mean will this image live on and be maintained? Then
yes, I plan to keep it going. It's central to the Shib customization work
that I do for Unicon's customers (and the IAM/IdP in the Cloud stuff we
are doing). If you mean, can you get help when working with it, I guess
I'd answer "sure", with the following fine fine print: If there are
issues/problems with the Dockerized nature of things or just general image
utilization, then yes, will do my best. If it is Shib config specific
support, then that would probably need to fall under a Unicon OSS support
agreement or SOW.
