It's true that the current documentation does have such a warning on it. However, as Scott says, it is likely that the Shibboleth Metadata Aggregator will be "in development" and "not final" for some time to come. Despite that, it is in daily production use in many places, including several of the HE federations.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The Shibboleth MDA is the backbone of the UK federation's metadata tooling, for example, and has been for some years now. It's stable enough for production use, in my opinion. As I'm the person who built the UKf tooling and also the lead developer on the Shibboleth MDA, you may however consider me to be biased.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So, perhaps we should tone down the warning a little. The main concern I'd want to point out to potential users these days is that there's a bit of a learning cliff and that the APIs will change, sometimes dramatically, in each pre-1.0 release.</div>
