A medium-traffic mailing list where users of Shibboleth can discuss issues with the Shibboleth team and the larger user community. Questions regarding OpenSAML should <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">not</strong> be sent here, but to the dev list

<div>Lurking and spamming participants on an open source mailing list is, in my opinion, both good business and really bad karma. I like to think karma wins sometimes.</div>
