[Bug 1407695] Re: [MIR] python-saml2, python-repoze.who, xmlsec1

[Seth Arnold]

I got a response from Tres Seaver to some of the issues I raised in this
MIR:

====
Thanks for the report!  1.0.18 is a long time ago now (almost 4 1/2
years).  The latest release is 2.2, and there will likely be a 2.2.1
released in the near future.

We are pretty unlikely to make another 1.x release, unless you (or
somebody else) submits PRs for them (I just opened a '1.0-maintenance'
branch, in case someone wants to tackle it):

  https://github.com/repoze/repoze.who/tree/1.0-maintenance

Changes since 1.0.18 relevant to your issues:

- - Made `htpasswd' plugin more isochronous (2.1).

- - Deprecated plugins, moving them to a new 'repoze.who.deprecatedplugins'
  project (2.0a3):

  - 'repoze.who.plugins.cookie.InsecureCookiePlugin'
  - 'repoze.who.plugins.form.FormPlugin'
  - 'repoze.who.plugins.form.RedirectingFormPlugin'

On the trunk, the SQL plugin issues you report should probably get some
attention:  I don't actually use it myself, which makes that trickier to
think about.

====

It would be nice to use a more up-to-date version of repoze.who. Nearly
five years out of date already, it would be nice to avoid being eleven
years out of date at the end of the next LTS release.

Thanks
