I can assure you this is not the case for the Shibboleth project proper, and though I'm not intimately familiar with the funding situation for the national federations, I would still take the wager if they were included.<br>

Toss in campus IT budgets and of course we end up in the big leagues, but very little of that is R&D.<div class="im"><br>

I'd also like to clarify this, if I may. We certainly believe a lot of people want it, particularly CIO's -- they tell us as much, after all.<br>
<br>
We are less convinced they know what SLO entails in a federated environment, and we're very wary of leading them to believe it's more effective than it really is. As it's relied upon to clear sessions that can be associated with sensitive data or apps, we want them to be fully aware of what it can and can't do.<br>
<br>
We're also not sure what the user intends when they click logout. Do they intend to log out of this application alone, or do they expect to be logged out of the IdP/OP as well? All other applications they've logged into with this ID? I'm not personally convinced this is such a huge issue because users already get a variety of behavior here and cope with it fine, but the devs are concerned about it.<br>
