Simple SAML

I agree that I don't think they're using SAML 2.  What I keep getting into
is they're constantly pointing fingers at my testshib server saying it's on
our side.  They did it again today.  I have other SPs that use this just
fine and am having no problems when I use sp.testshib.org.

My next step is to setup a Drupal of my own and see what I have to do to
get that to work.
