<p>I agree but I didn't see any way to upload the metadata directly. That would have been my preference. If I missed something, please let me know.</p>
<p>I do understand what the three certs are for, but I didn't know which one to choose in this case, where it seemed you could only upload one.</p>
<p>We have very few SPs that rely on the metadata from InCommon, which I am now grateful for.</p>

You said earlier you don't know what the three certs in the metadata<br>
are for, so why would you want to upload that as-is to InCommon?<br>
<br>

I don't think you do. The metadata that the software spits out is most<br>
often not what you want to expose to the world. I realize it's water<br>
under the bridge but in your case you should have concentrated on what<br>
you already published, not what the software produced. The world knows<br>
you by your published metadata---no more, no less.<br>
