Completed in 2.0 | Lite UI enhancement | Support easier to use end-user UI components in addition to the existing administrative UI. Initial component, for managing membership of a single group, is in v1.5. |
Completed in 2.0 | Integrate with VOOT | Integrate Grouper with VOOT (group protocol for cloud webapps), experimental... |
Completed in 1.6-2.1+ | Notification of changes | In v1.6, build on the initial implementation of incremental group, membership, and folder (or namespace) change notifications in v1.5 to provide notification based on flattened group membership to more efficiently enable relying parties to maintain membership lists. Also in v1.6, partner with a deployment using an asynchronous messaging infrastructure (perhaps an ESB) to drive enhancement of the toolkit for that style of data integration. |
Completed in v1.6 | Attribute framework | Complement the existing ad hoc attribute on groups with the ability to define and associate attributes of various types to groups, memberships, and folders. Initial release was in v1.5, comprising marker attributes. Additional attribute types in v1.6. Expose attribute framework suitably through web services interfaces in v1.6. |
Completed in v1.6 | Kuali Identity Management integration | A connector that enables Kuali Rice to delegate group management to Grouper. |

Completed in v 1.6 | External workflow integration | Integrate Grouper with Kuali Enterprise Workflow (v1.6), and maybe other implementations. |
Completed in v1.5 | Namespace Transition Support | The hierarchy of folders (or naming stems) in a deployment will change over time. This supports the ability to logically move or copy a group, a selection of groups, or a folder from one folder to another. This complements the capability of the XML Import/Export tool for prune & graft operations for large scale changes. |
Completed in v1.5 | User Audit | Report on who took which administrative action when. |
Completed in v1.4 | Extension hooks | Implement infrastructure within the Grouper API to enable independent extension of key internal events. Pre- and post-processing hooks will be provided for each "primitive API operation". This would make certain other tasks more feasible, notably "Notification of changes" in this roadmap and incorporation of a site's business rules. |
Completed in v1.4 | Enhance Web Services | Solidify the experimental Web Services support released in 1.3.0 based on field experience. |
The issue has been resolved with improved Grouper configuration and the cessation of the Signet project. | Configuration and binding framework for I2MI | Identify and implement a framework in which combinations of I2MI components (currently Grouper API, Grouper UI, Grouper Web Services, Signet API, Signet UI, Ldappc, and Subject source adapters) can be easily integrated (not just in a single JVM). This is largely an issue of managing configuration and 3rd party libraries. The Spring application framework is an example of what might be used to address this need. |
This was overtaken by the "Enhance Web Services" item in the roadmap. | Web service interface facades | Determine which subsets of native API capabilities should be exposed through more focused end points to facilitate access by applications to Grouper- and Signet-provided access management capabilities. Also investigate how facades may be used to manage access to underlying group and privilege management and query capabilities. |
Not yet assigned | Further KIM-Grouper integration | Refine the Kuali KIM services interfaces and extend existing integration beyond group-level into roles & permissions. |
Not yet assigned | Further uPortal-Grouper integration | Complete Phase II deliverables. Time frame for Phase III deliverables still to be determined in concert with uPortal team. |
Not yet assigned | Security plugins | Spring security, Shiro, .NET plugins for Grouper WS that might be able to be distributed with the plugin itself. Initial proof-of-concept code available: https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/Grouper/Unicon+Grouper+Contributions. |
