<div dir="ltr">Thanks for your advice, Tom and Peter. We'll try to have those aspects in mid and try to handle the possible technical problems that could arise and also try to provide a pleasant, non-confusing interface to the users.<br>

<div class="">> As a side comment... would you recommend a WAYF solution, like the one from<br>

<br>
</div>I'd rather run the EDS as a CDS (with a Shib SP feeding it and doing<br>
any filtering) than the CDS code itself, but that has its own<br>
problems, mostly with i18n due to brower language detection with some<br>
browsers (e.g. chromium/chrome).<br>
<br>
Most DSs (including discojuice and the Shib EDS) have issues with<br>
mdui:DisplaName elements in several languages, so you might not find<br>
your institution if looking for it in a different language than what<br>
the software had "detected" from your browser.<br>
<br>
The SWITCHwayf works fine in all those cases, IIRC, and also has a<br>
single interface element which acts as both typeahead search as well<br>
as dropdown list (with icons), whereas with the EDS you'll have to<br>
switch from one mode to the other and lose the icons in list mode.<br>
So it's interface is one of the most advanced today, you might say.<br>
Upgrading the SWITHwayf is a bit more involved, you'd probably have to<br>
track releases in vendor branches (of your own) and merge updates,<br>
otherwise it's a bit tedious. Also metadata updates need to happen via<br>
cron, that's not a big issue, of course.<br>
<br>
Here's what eduID.at documents for our consistency, FWIW:<br>
