Shibbing XWiki

I wonder if this is of use to the XWiki community. As part of the Guanxi project, we turned XWiki into a Shibboleth Service Provider. It's proof of concept just now. All it does it protect the user registration page so you can define rules on who can register. The next step is to integrate auto account creation into XWiki so that you don't need to register or create accounts if you come in via Shibboleth. You can have resources in XWiki and can define rules such as "members of institution X can view these" without having to create accounts for those people. We presented a demo of a shibbed XWiki at JA-SIG in December. The slides are at: http://guanxi.uhi.ac.uk/xwiki/bin/download/Main/Dissemination/GuanxiAustin_… it's the second last slide in the presentation that shows the XWiki-shibb integration. I think we'll wait until 1.0 has been finalised before continuing with the auto account creation part and turning XWiki into a proper Shibboleth Service Provider. cheers, Alistair -- Alistair Young Senior Software Engineer UHI@Sabhal Mòr Ostaig Isle of Skye Scotland
