Public Endpoint Entities Registry
PEER is envisioned as a lightweight, global registrar for SAML Metadata representing both SAML and non-SAML endpoints (e.g., OpenID, IMI). It is intended as a focused activity to catalyze international use of federated identity. The service is not intended to be a replacement for federation or inter-federation, but is intended to be a tool supporting such activities.

CHANGES
0.8.0 (2012-01-31)
- Rich metadata support. Now it is possible to edit the logo and geolocalization hint of an entity. This feature is used to display richer multimedia information through PEER.
- Improve the metadata editor with request initiator and discovery response endpoint support. Also improve the localization plugin and add keywords and logo to the information plugin.
- Metadata refresh: if the entity id is a URL that points to the metadata itself the user can activate a periodic fetch of this metadata.
- Preview before commit: now the editing and commiting flows are separated by a modal dialog that ask for the commit message only when the changes are ready. In this dialog a diff of the current changes is available for easy reviewing.
- Git repositry co-existence: if there is already a Git repository with metadata files it can be reused in PEER by specifing the directory that PEER 'owns' inside this repository.

- Lots of bug fixes and documentation improvements.
