JFYI, if this is using the SAML 2.0 protocol then the above is not legal according to the relevant specification governing use of eduPerson attributes within SAML: These attribute names were already declared "legacy names" (section 2.2.1) even for use with SAML 1.x back in 2008 when the MACE-Dir SAML Attribute Profiles[1] were published, but for SAML 2.0 "[t]he legacy names assigned for use with the SAML 1.x attribute profile MUST NOT be used with this profile" (section 3.2, p.11, lines 367f)
If not even our own community (!) adheres to our own community standards (!) then it's no wonder this is all such a big mess...
Hi Peter. I'm told you have been discussing this in the past, and apparently the Dutch federation team sees it differently than you. Maybe not repeat that discussion on this list.
