PicketLink's Seam Module V1.0.2: many new features!

Note from Marcel: It's a big leap forward. The sample app is now a proof that the Seam module of PicketLink integrates well with external SAML and OpenID identity providers. And installing it in a JBoss AS 5.1 server is as simple as deploying the war file. I'm looking forward to the experiences of the community when using it.
