Excellent Authentication & Authorization Integration

This module maps from Shibboleth attributes to Drupal roles very elegantly.

Some of the configuration options are a little too detailed, and I'd like to see support for new features like embedded DS added.

Also, some other Drupal modules are unable to use the session created by this module for reasons that aren't clear to me.

But this is one of the better examples of a Shibbolized application that I've found, and kudos to the NIIF team for their hard work.
