Dartmouth has extended the standard CAS 2.0 XML response to include  
some non-standard attributes. This involves extending some of the  
classes in the server, as well as updating the clients to present  
these new fields to users.

The archives of this mailing list should contain a fairly detailed  
description of the design we chose.
