Ideas
| Title | Standardize requirements for logos in metadata |
|---|---|
| Description | There is little overlap and a lot of contradictions in requirements for logos in metadata among federations. We could improve the UI experience throughout eduGAIN if we standardized requirements internationally.

Title | Service Provider Engagement Plan |
|---|---|
| Description | Develop/enhance an engagement plan for service providers. The goal is threefold: 1) to gain deeper insights about the needs of SPs within the community, 2) to better integrate SPs in general community engagement (conferences, working groups, discussions, etc), and 3) to develop a resource for gaining SP support, feedback, and contributions.

Title | Building intentional Community |
|---|---|
| Description | As we explore the evolution of federation in the Federation 2.0 work, it is useful to explore building an intentional community for supporting this future. In addition, key retirements within our community and evolving skillset requirements to support new federation needs highlight the urgency of ensuring that our community is open and accessible to newcomers, and supportive as current members take on new roles and skills. What is needed? How do we build and support it? How do we support the individuals that are a part of this community?
