Baseline Expectations  V2

• Next steps are to create official document for BE v2, with goal for before end of Sept. 2019
• Could take 2 months do consensus process and the consultation
• Then TechEx could be a milestone for wrapping up consultation.
• No CTAB meeting in 2019 after TECH Ex in December

• Baseline 2020 - Forming sub groups to flesh out individual items - need assignees/takers to work on topics
• Survey results blog published.
• REFEDS MFA - Albert working on draft around REFEDS MFA - may have doc ready for discussion - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ASI_fvciqj6JWRiJZbUUWSLTLb-BfWjkK8syxlXHHFo/edit#
   
• AI EricG  list issues he has run into and other issues for REFEDS MFA
• ChrisW is also interested in this area
• Developing a community practice is the goal

• Sirtfi - Sirfi/CTAB task force (Albert to convene) - awaiting Tom’s return for follow up calls: any additional interested parties? 
• Concern on what the Federation operator does
  
  
• Error URL, Encryption - ??  Who will lead this? 
• Suggestion to start the document and then all contribute
• Much of this is already captured in documents from April 

• AI Albert  take documents from April regarding Error URL and Encryption and use as a foundation for BE v2 documents
  
• R&S 
• Need more context on what R&S is really for and when it’s appropriate to use?
• Better explained if there were other comparable entity category/bundles… for example, what’s emerging from SeamlessAccess
• Rachana is interested in this. There are privacy questions that arise, 
• AI Albert will start a document to surface the concerns on R&S, similar to what Albert has drafted  for REFEDs MFA. Reach out to Brad Christ to help with this
  
  

CTAB Recruiting for 2020 - what kind of skills/representation do we need in coming years?

• 1 member term ends in 2019, Chris Whalen

• What are possible areas CTAB will become involved in in 2020 - additional entity categories? Privacy framework (see NIST Privacy framework)
  https://www.nist.gov/document/nistprivacyframeworkpreliminarydraftpdf 
• CTAB members list and replacement cycle: https://incommon.org/community/leadership/, click to open CTAB
•  CTAB Charter http://doi.org/10.26869/TI.94.1
• There should be 7-13 members of CTAB, according to the CTAB charter
• Currently there are 10 voting members of CTAB
• Chris W is rolling off at end of 2019
• It would be ideal to bring in 4 new members to CTAB this year, so about the same # of members will roll off each year.
• Historically CTAB has been heavy on the IDP side. Helpful to have more SP representatives
• Would also be good to have some small private IDPs represented  on CTAB
• ChrisW will reach out to a contact.
•   AI Jessica will discuss with Ann whether a non InCommon member would be eligible for CTAB membership (done)
•  
• Jessica has developed a Common Process for Recruiting across InCommon Committees
• Jessica will develop a common solicitation with a blurb from each committee
