SUMMARY: I am making the editorial recommendation that we remove the word SSO from lines 523-524. It would then read:

I agree with that change.

Lines 523-524 of bindings-07 state:

In steps 4 and 5, the destination site, in effect, dereferences the >one

or more SAML artifacts in its possession in order to acquire a >>SAML SSO assertion that corresponds to each artifact.

Unfortunately, this is a botched correction of an earlier incorrect statement in cs-sstc-bindings-01:

500 - 501

"dereferences the one or more SAML artifacts in its possession in order to acquire a SAML authentication assertion that corresponds to each artifact"

Other contexts in bindings-07 make it clear that assertions other than SSO assertions may be passed via artifacts:

550 At least one of the SAML assertions returned to the destination site MUST be an SSO assertion.

OR

611 * SAML assertions communicated in step 5 MUST include an SSO assertion.

OR

718-721

Exactly one SAML response MUST be included within the FORM body with the control name SAMLResponse; multiple SAML assertions MAY be included in the response. At least one of the assertions MUST be an SSO assertion. A single target description MUST be included with the control name TARGET.
