- Heather sent a suggestion to the SC that we have a single governance board
- Scott suggests adding something about the membership that there is a mechanism to try and make sure the membership represents the full spectrum of stakeholders that are impacted by the schemas (e.g., research needs a seat at that table)
- Heath will send a few templates to get this into a better format (to include chair, meeting frequency, membership, etc)
- eduPerson has been copied to the wiki, and a landing page posted on the website
- Would it be possible to create smaller work teams to help encourage faster changes for minor additions?
- Some concern that any schema change would require more review
- Smaller work teams could work for minor changes along the lines of punctuation for clarity
- First thing the board should do is define their bylaws that could include this kind of fast, straightforward change process
- Heath Marks to send comments to Heather on structure.

- Not all federations can support SIRTFI. Some individual institutions want/need to assert SIRTFI directly. The SIRTFI+ registry would allow for individual institutions to assert SIRTFI outside the usual federation metadata. It would be a unique stream of metadata.
- This was a contentious item at the REFEDS meeting in Orlando. There is tension building between fed ops and the SIRTFI+ proposal.
- Might be less contention about who operates this if the purpose and parameters of the registry were more clearly understood.
- One item to be clarified: The metadata will not be re-inserted into the eduGAIN metadata feed.
- See update from Tom Barton to the sc list.
- Can REFEDS send a more official note to fed ops requesting they support this entity? Not sure how effective this would be; some large federations have already indicated they will not move on this.
- Nicole Harris will draft a letter on behalf of the SC to send to the CEO (or equivalent) of federations that are not currently supporting SIRTFI
