Contents may have shifted in flight

On a flight from Brussels to Heathrow I noticed the following diagram in the back of BMI's in flight magazine.


It describes the permutations in the process for passengers connnecting at LHR - the options distinguished by where from & to the passengers are connecting.

I can see something similar for guiding deployers of interconnected identity systems.
  • For users arriving through SAML SSO and not arriving with 'carry-on' attributes, for connection to ID-WSF, please proceed to the bootstrap. Otherwise, please join the queue for Attribute Processing.
  • For users arriving through OpenID SSO and not arriving with 'carry-on' attributes, for connection to ID-WSF (either SOAP or AJAX bindings), please proceed to the bootstrap (either SAML & YADIS-based respectively). Otherwise, please join the queue for Attribute Processing.
  • Should any user arrive through WS-Federation SSO, please contact an agent on arrival for specific instructions. Expeditious processing will be enabled by removing all jewelry, belts, shoes, and inhibitions about cavity searches.
