Discussion

Baseline Expectations for Trust in Federation


Baseline Expectations Implementation Consultation is open from July 23, 2017 until Aug. 18, 2017. This timing will allow incorporation of feedback from InCommon Steering  https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/x/uZ6TBg

Brett reached out to the InCommon Steering Chair Sean Reyonlds, Kevin Morooney and Ann West regarding getting on the InCommon Steering agenda for July and Aug. The current plan is:

  • Brett may be on the Steering agenda for July to give a heads up to Steering about the Baselines Expectations Maintenance process
  • On the August Steering call - more discussion about the FOPP etc 
  • Note: Ann may need to miss the July Steering call due to AACRAO Conference

It's important to update and refine the communications plan around Baseline Expectations Maintenance.
[AI] (Brett) will review Strawman Schedule for implementing Baseline Expectations and update it prior to July Steering meeting
 

The topic was raised of how much of a burden it will be for SPs and IDPs to meet the baseline expectations. It was noted that Jim Basey might have a good perspective on this.  (Note; immediately after this call, Chris Whalen reached out to Jim Basney and received some thoughts around burden for organizations that are note updated to Shibboleth v3.  

It was noted that some clarification would be helpful in the naming of the Baseline Expectations  Implementation and Maintenance docs. 
[AI] (Tom) ensure docs are correctly named - regarding maintenance and implementation

Reinstating metadata

Reinstating metadata after metadata has been removed in the Baseline Expectations Maintenance Plan – is a topic Ann was asked about at TNC17. It was agreed that accidental or intentional re-instatement are both scenarios we may want to think about.

 Two different use cases: 

▪ 1) went through dispute resolution and it failed. Went to AAC and peer review.  So it makes sense to return AAC and peer review

▪ 2) if the issue is just with InCommon ops, then InCommon ops could decide about reinstatement

 [AI] (Tom) will put decision that AAC handles metadata reinstatement into the BE Maintenance Processes doc (done)

[AI] (Emily) Put reinstatement process on a list for Ann and TomB to talk about with InCommon Ops
   ▪ Can the FM be modified to automatically check for metadata validity
    ▪ Once an entity has been modified in FM, can it be placed into the front of the maintenance process queue for checking contacts/URLs

Baseline Expectations Plan at 2017 TechEx
