Another major step for the Ipsilon project: we have just released version 1.0.0 !

This release marks the first stable release for Ipsilon, with hopefully many exciting releases to follow. I would really like to thank everyone that has contributed to the project since its start, we would not be here without them.

My last post on the release of Ipsilon 0.3.0 was exactly 6 months and a day ago, and since then we have been pretty busy. Some of the highlights of the last 6 months :

  • Single Logout for SAML2 (SP-initiated)
  • SAML IdP metadata now expiring and automatically regenerated
  • New policy framework for mapping and filtering attributes
  • Request/response logging
  • Uninstallation added to installer
  • REST API for listing and adding of Service Providers
  • Implement nameid formats transient, persistent and unspecified
  • IdP-initiated single logout for SAML
  • Automatic registration of a Service Provider from ipsilon-client-install
  • Lots of bugfixes

Some highlights

At this point, I thought it would be fun to gather some statistics about the project, just for fun. Some highlights:

  • The project has had its very first commit on December 3rd, 2013
  • Since then, it has had 480 commits, from 7 different authors
  • At the time of the 1.0.0 release, it has 36.395 lines of code
  • Not a single commit has been made on 8 or 11 o’clock, and the most active hour is between 21:00 and 21:59
  • Wednesdays have been days with very few commits (just 13%), while Tuesdays and Fridays both have about 22%.
  • The author of the month until February 2015 has always been Simo Sorce, since then Rob Crittenden has taken over this place (with me as runner-up… I’ve got a new goal!)
