Re: [security-dev] IDM: Support for XML configuration

I would suggest we develop an XML based configuration in its own submodule, we can probably call it picketlink/xml-config and it can simply implement the configuration interfaces we have defined in the idm submodule and other submodules.

Marek if you want commit access to work on this please let me know and I'll get you set up, and I'm also more than happy to provide input on the requirements.
