Hi,
I'm the creator of pac4j and we would be happy to receive a new
contribution.
I don't know Keycloak, but the only "constraint" is that it respects more
or less the general flow : redirect the user to the provider,
authentication, be redirected back to the application, retrieve the user
profile...
The main advantage of integrating Keycloak into pac4j is that it would
become available subsequently in:
- any J2E application
- any Shiro application
- any Spring Security application
- any Play application
- the CAS server
- any Ratpack application
- any Vertx application (soon I hope)
- any Undertow application (soon I hope).

If I wrote a pac4j module for Keycloak [1], it could be accepted and
distributed with pac4j?
