[OpenID] Fwd: Several Questions for the Current & Future Board

[Peter Williams]

Hopefully, that is the one.

Isn't email a wonderful locator service. 9th dec 2008?

Out of interest, did any board member (us or euro) have access to this (or a draft) before 9 dec? If not, why not! Someone is not doing their job if they are not properly networking.

Now there may be at least 4 openid to saml gateway designs. Ping identity original (openid1), trustbearer/opentoken for rapattoni (openid2), trustbearer saml2 native for their various govt clients (openid2), uk academia experiment (openid1 - at the outset)

The us shib community had easy access to partial openid1 support at some point. Any chance it now works now (ie I can try it to talk to pbwiki) AND it talks to the uk academic openid gateway (if operational)?

UKG apparently spent public money at the university of kent on openid, last year. Do we have access to its final report and the data and the experimental setup and the list of piloting sites and the contacts...? Betcha anything certain board members had access (or had access to its penultimate draft at least)! I'd love to see the results. Doubt I ever will.

Hello. Just joined this list so I might have misunderstood what you're referring to.

Is this the report you're looking for, published on the 9th December? A joint project between Universities of Edinburgh and Kent:

http://www.jisc.ac.uk/publications/publications/openidfinalreport.aspx
http://www.jisc.ac.uk/media/documents/programmes/einfrastructure/openid-finalreport-v1.0.pdf

You'll see they've created an OpenID Shibboleth Gateway for demo purposes as well as providing a design summary.

Cheers
Joss
