Package: peer
PEER is the software implementing REEP, which is envisioned as a lightweight,
global registrar service for SAML Metadata, extendable for non-SAML endpoints.
Independently from REEP it can be deployed as metadata registry for federations.Project home:https://github.com/Emergya/peerMailing list:http://lists.iay.org.uk/listinfo.cgi/peer-iay.org.ukPython package:https://pypi.python.org/pypi/peer/REEP service:https://reep.refeds.org/Please read the documentation in the doc directory for more information.

off such tag.Update SAMLmeteaJS to latest version upstream to fix issue #3.Several fixes in the documentation:Make the paths more generic and add notes with real paths depending on the
current version.Add a note about the initial administrator’s name.Replace terena.org with example.com in the example configuration.Fix some typos.Include txt templates in the distribution.0.10.0 (2012-03-28)Nagios integration by implementing a passive nagios agent that
listen for Entity’s updates (creations, updates and deletions)

the label for the entity. Otherwise, the entity id is used and
if neither of them exists, the PEER numeric id is used.Improve the usability of the SAMLmetaJS editor by showing
user errors as soon as possible and asking the user either to
fix them or to remove the information that is giving trouble.Implement REMOTE_USER authentication with an easy to switch
settings option. Also document the web server part of the setup.Update djangosaml2 dependency version. This uses newest pysaml2 version.
As a consequence encrypted assertions and signed response and requests

- Support for IdP endpoints and certificates.
- Support for EncryptionMethod in KeyDescriptors
- Support for MDUI.PrivacyStatementURL and MDUI.InformationURL.
- Many refactorings to improve code reuse.
- Merge features from PEER 0.8.0 into SAMLmetaJS master branch.Show IdP information (endpoints and certificates) in the details view.Improve certificate rendering in the details view.Send emails to subscribers of entities when their endpoints are down.Allow to subscribe to entities for updates about their endpoints state.Refactor the views module of the entities application into a package
which is easier to handle.Several bug fixes:
- Fix the terms of use file in the metadata upload file form (issue #2).
- Fix bad use of ugettext_lazy and use ugettext instead.
- Fix a crash when an entity is new and does not have metadata yet.
- Fix the way the diff is computed when submitting a change to the

metadata itself the user can activate a periodic fetch of this
metadata.Preview before commit: now the editing and commiting flows are
separated by a modal dialog that ask for the commit message only
when the changes are ready. In this dialog a diff of the current
changes is available for easy reviewing.Git repositry co-existence: if there is already a Git repository
with metadata files it can be reused in PEER by specifing the
directory that PEER ‘owns’ inside this repository.Metadata grouping: a user can define an entity group by writing
a query. A custom feed and map for this group are created
automatically so following the changes for related entities
becomes easier.Lots of bug fixes and documentation improvements.0.7.0 (2011-12-22)DNS-based domain validationDelegated domains: an administrator can validate a domain directly and
