GX_lib 1.0.0 (stable) released.

Guanxi is a Java application which supports federated authentication, authorization and accounting services [AAAS]. It includes OS implementations of the SAML specification and the Shibboleth extended profile specification for the IdP, as well as other functions which support Shibboleth in applications which require local accounts to function. gx_lib is a package of libs needed to support the guanxi and samuel packages.

This release, 1.0.0, is stable and has been successfully deployed in several institutions in the UK for production service. It has already been tied into the Bodington VLE and is available in the latest release of that software for an easily deployed testbed of Shibboleth for elearning.
