LOL! I give in - it's Friday, the sun's out - where's me deckchair  
and knotted hankie?

I'd have reservations about the in-context one as it uses an auto  
login "feature".

The shibbed version creates users on the fly and adds them into  
groups defined in their attributes. It doesn't create fora etc as  
that's not shibboleth - that's provisioning - IMS, which we're  
looking into.

Ant has a load of useful in-context functionality that does that but  
we're thinking of IMSing it or something similar. So bod uses IMS to  
create the fora from it's tool and users use shibb to get to the fora.
