Overview
As of In August 2018 , CACTI has been was asked to assess the recommendations made in the v2 FIM4R (Federated Identity Management for Research Collaborations) paper alongside Internet2’s Trust and Identity portfolio’s progress and posture and provide a draft for the Internet2 Technology Exchange in Orlando Oct. 15-18, 2018..
The final recommendations from CACTI are available here: http://doi.org/10.26869/TI.112.1 and serve to help us shape the R&E Trust and Identity journey.
Many thanks to all who participated across the Internet2 community and working groups for their passion in support of collaboration in the research and education community.

Additional Guidance on the Activity
- Scope
- Given time constraints and strong desire to cast the net as widely as possible CACTI suggests:
- Focus response to answer these 3 questions from a Working Group (WG) perspective:
- What is supported from the FIM4R paper?
- What is planned to being supported from the FIM4R paper. Estimation of arrival of planned work welcome?
- What recommendations does the WG have for CACTI to focus on or introduce as a new activity to meet the FIM4R recommendations?
- When responding, CACTI suggests using the FIM4R Section 5.6 Mapping of Groups to Recommendations with one of the 3 groups as a minimum to characterize the work are:
1st row - GEANT,Internet2,NRENS
4th row - R&E Federations
3rd row - Home Organizations

- A presentation that summarizes key points to assist communicating results internally and externally
- Invitation to others desiring to be involved to blog and/or communicate about the effort
- A culminating PDF document of the assessment and recommendations report
- Output of the activity should minimally be:
