Good morning peeps, I would like to give to you a heads up to avoid any
kind of confusion (sorry for the long e-mail). If you are too lazy to
read the whole e-mail here is the TL;DR:

Don't make use of AeroGear Security PicketLink 1.1.2/1.2.0 because they
have critical bugs. Use the snapshot release 1.2.1-SNAPSHOT.

Some weeks ago AeroGear Security 1.2.0 was released with PicketLink Beta
6, Before the released I tested it against AeroGear Controller demo and
couldn't find any issue.

Changelog

- AeroGear Security 1.2.0

 * [7743790] - Formatting
 * [85805a4] - POJO is an acronym, should be uppercase
 * [ee0f8fb] - mention Apache Shiro and Hawk
 * [b65e403] - bump up to 1.2.0
 * [a177956] - Adding unit tests for empty passwords and certificates

* [3d1407a] - [maven-release-plugin] prepare for next development iteration
* [10b05d7] - [maven-release-plugin] prepare release 1.2.0
* [7c1001f] - Merge branch 'AGSEC-93'
* [1d84d7d] - Fixing unit tests and ignoring some methods
* [93ce3f2] - Display the correct OTP login name
* [98b444f] - Bump up to PicketLink beta6

After the released we found some compatibility issues with the push
server and also security issues, so we had to keep the Unified push
server stable and for this reason was created a branch '1.1.x' on
AeroGear Security and released 1.1.2 with PicketLink Beta 5.
