[cas-dev] JA-SIG CAS Client vs. Yale CAS Client

[Scott Battaglia]

Jennifer,

The Yale CAS Java Client is the latest "stable" release of a Java client 
for CAS.  The JA-SIG CAS Client for Java is a re-architectured version 
and has not had a production release yet (though the code is stable, and 
we are using it in production on some of the JA-SIG sites).

There is currently no documentation for the JA-SIG CAS Client for Java, 
like there is for the Yale client.  The JA-SIG client distribution does 
include example XML files that should be sufficient to get you set up. 
We're hoping for a GA release soon.

Both releases should be sufficient for your needs.  If you're concerned 
that the JA-SIG client has not yet had a production release, I would 
recommend the Yale client.  Otherwise, the JA-SIG client should be good.
