Hello Scott, (I was going to reply to you off list but can't because I can't get a digital id (service seems to be down)...which makes this request kind of ironic! I have been reading up on what the kind people of this list have sent me and now need to know more about your work on authenticated queries (SAML assertions was it?) Can you send me an update on this i.e. is anyone implementing here in this area i.e. MAMS? I've seen this: http://www.imsglobal.org/query/imsQueryServices.html#1671727 Thanks, Howard ----- Original Message ----- From: "Andy Heath" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Thursday, October 06, 2005 10:30 AM Subject: Re: metadata mapping > Hi Howard, > > I think its not quite that simple because its not just the > Meta-data its the aggregations themselves.
