sender-vouches example in SAML Token Profile 1.1

Is there a typo in the sender-vouches example of the SAML Token Profile 1.1 (wss-v1.1-spec-os-SAMLTokenProfile.pdf) document?  Section 3.5.2.3 and 3.5.2.4 have XML examples a SAML token using the sender-vouches method.  However, both of these XML examples use "holder-of-key", rather than "sender-vouches", even though they are under the sender-vouches section.

Is this a typo, or is it intentional?

Thank you.

Service Provider Implementation - help

Hello Everyone,

I am new to SAML sp implementation. 

My Work assignment is


The End-user logs into the application(IDP)successfully and clicks on a link(Service Providers). When the user clicks on SP link, the IDP would send the SAML assertion in the String format.

As an Service Provider, my application should retrieve the SAML String and process(i.e., validate and verify the signature) it. If the signature and assertions are ok, then the user would be redirected to actual requested page.

Common domain cookies

I have been tasked with an integration that includes an IdP and an SP on the same domain. Our original idea was to use the SAML POST bindings to establish authentication and for logout requests. My question is, can I incorporate common domain cookies to make my job easier? I'm fairly new to the SAML standard, so I apologize if the answer is obvious.

Session Timeout

I have a situation where the user logs into the IdP and then uses SSO to get to the SP.  After a period of time, the user returns to the IdP, but the IdP session has timed out due to inactivity and so the user has to log back into the IdP.  Basically, I looking for a SAML way to maintain the session on the IdP as long as there is activity on the SP.  Is there a SAML way to do this?  If not, is there anything planned in future versions of SAML for this?
