(d) Summary This specification provides metadata support for SAML V1.x by profiling the SAML V2.0 metadata specification for use with the SAML V1.x-based profiles and exchanges. SAML profiles generally require agreements between system entities regarding identifiers, binding/profile support and endpoints, certificates and keys, etc. A metadata specification is useful for describing this information in a standardized way. However, SAML V1.0 and V1.1 did not include such a metadata profile and this specification is intended to address that shortcoming. (e) Relationship to other work Not applicable to this specification.
