<p class="MsoNormal"> Adoption of Roland Hedberg's federation specification<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Next Call<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Adoption of Roland Hedberg's federation specification<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Roland got a lot of questions from people running federations about using OpenID Connect instead of SAML<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> The lynchpin of the work is defining a way of having trust in the federation information<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Roland wrote up a way to enable federation with OpenID Connect while enabling trust in the federation metadata<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Roland updated the draft based on preliminary feedback from people<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Two weeks ago Roland presented the work during a federation conference in Prague including GEANT members and others<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Organizations can create new endpoints without having to go back to the federation operator<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Important in a world with thousands or more relying parties<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> At the same time, some federation operators want control over what organizations can and can't do<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Different federations can have different business rules<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> InCommon requires payment to participate<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Some federations don't<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> This feedback is causing Roland to rethink some aspects of the draft now<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> There is lots of interest in creating OpenID Connect federations in the higher education world<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Roland really wants there to be one standard for this<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> The OpenID Foundation is the obvious choice of where to do this work<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Mike moved that we adopt this, subject to the working group having a week to review the adoption decision<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Phil volunteered to review the draft in the next week<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Adoption means that the working group has decided to do work in this area, with this as a starting point<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Hearing no objections, Mike will send a note to the working group asking for them to review the adoption decision<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Next Call<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Our next schedule meeting is Monday July 25 at 3pm Pacific<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> We tentatively cancelled the meeting on Thursday the 21st due to IETF<o:p></o:p></p>
