E. Stuart Hicks commented on DS-187:
------------------------------------
Just curious to see if any progress on this has been made or if it's being
preempted by DSpace 2.0. We do have a 1.5 instance that will require anonymous
Shib support in the near future and the idea of taking said instance and
rebuilding it under 2.0 is not appealing in any way.

> Key: DS-187
> URL: http://jira.dspace.org/jira/browse/DS-187
> Project: DSpace 1.x
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: DSpace API
> Affects Versions: 1.5.2
> Reporter: Andrea Bollini
> Attachments: shib-dspace3613-new

> This issue has been created from the follow up of the DS-48 issue.
> Stuart Hicks, Systems Engineer at OhioLINK, has been working with a slightly
> older version of the patch than what was released today and found two things
> that we need in our environment:
> # Anonymous users - We can't guarantee that we'll get an eppn, email address,
> or much of anything else from the schools except the mandatory affiliation
> values. This is the issue that the attached patch addresses. Anonymous users
> are defaulted to a preset account dictated by the email-default value in
> dspace.cfg
> # Scoping - The authentication.shib.role handlers need to support scoping as
> we use eduPersonScopedAffiliation attributes rather than the unscoped variety.
> Here's the text from his patch (based on an earlier version) to allow
> anonymous, but Shibboleth authenticated users. Would it be possible to get
> this change incorporated into the main codebase?:
