Starting work on the shibboleth-sp2 packages

I'm starting to work on the shibboleth-sp2 packages now that opensaml2 has
cleared NEW.  Ferenc, just to double-check, it's okay if I change the
license of the Debian packaging to the Expat license that we're using for
the other packages, correct?

shibboleth-sp2 will need to use a repackaged upstream source tarball to
remove the WSD-Trust.xsd file the same as with shibboleth-sp,
unfortunately.  The license isn't DFSG-free since it doesn't permit
modification of the file or distribution of derivative works.
