Finish discussion of Baseline expectation of federation item 3
Tom - look at actions that may be done, auditing of members, SIRTFI
Nicole - anecdotally, trust of federations by other federations. how do we ensure that trust scales - not asking for inter-federation
communication. not directly related to this group but federations might need a staff change communication
Discussions of Baseline Expectations of Federations item 4
Nicole - second part makes sense - eg with recent R&S . finding information about what each Federation does can be long and cumbersome
Mario - where and how will the documents note the best practice/frameworks and entity categories
Nicole - a problem here - there are 3 different things called Best Practice guide. eg this one
https://technical.edugain.org/documents
https://wiki.geant.org/display/eduGAIN/Best+Current+Practice
and entity category information is fragmented
Miro - best current practice. if something is implemented, is it right? some are okay for some people but not for others . can we make things easier
and use baseline for this ?
Tom - InCommon Trust Advisory community board. look at baseline, ensure people are doing their thing.
Mario - eduGAIN technical support could do some of these things?
Nicole - may need more working groups to support the eduGAIN SG - ensure tooling works with all the things - eg R&S isnt supported.
Alan - this work will be aiming for an agreed baseline that every federation can agree to and match. this is a moving target though - we need
clear communication (as 2 conference events - eduGAIN town hall and TNC20 that were to happen didn't..)
Tom - value form this is for everyone but federation. need to have inclusivity with all the participants with respect to the governance.
Mario - FIM4R...
Tom commercials, research sector and others. stakeholders represent all
Mario - so if we made a big announcement that eg ll R&S capable must be by 'date' then workable?
Tom - yes, this is how InCommon operates - decide on the next big thing to be done, focus on that, communicate
Mario - R&S issue
Nicole - some federations have an issue with it, GDPR related maybe
Mario - need to be sure that level is agreed. what if one federation doesn't like the level or agree to the idea?
Alan - top of hour, we will leave this here at this interesting point for next time.
Action items
Alan - get fragmented notes published
Alan+ Pål to plan retroactive visit of minutes to make next step plan
