That is an interesting idea, and one that we should look at.  I was not at
the meeting in Reston.  Currently it will return the set of attributes that
are required to the requestor, but not a set of attribute authorities.

Subject: [plasma] URL of identity provider in plasma response

 

(resend)

 

At our meeting in Reston I thought it was described how a client could send
a Plasma Request without an Authentication element.  In this case the Plasma
Server would return a Plasma Response to the client containing the URL of
the Identity Provider (adfs) to authenticate with.  The client must then
authenticate with the Identity Provider and re-submit the Plasma Request
with the completed Authentication element (including the assertion returned
by adfs)  However, I can't find any of this described in the draft RFCs - Is
this yet to be described or have I misunderstood something?
