Agenda
Minutes:
Kevin lead a discussion on the different topic areas for the balance of calls left in the year that was discussed with the Executive team
PAG program- Jen Leisure,President of the Quilt will be joining the Trust and Identity PAG, along with Klass Wierenga (GEÁNT). Kevin is reaching out to one more person to add for a 1 yr term. Laura Paglione will be our PAG representative for the Internet2 all PAG group. We will be adding 30 min to each of our PAG calls beginning in May. Laura Paglione mentioned that the topics sounded more tactical as opposed to strategic, Michael Berman suggested that it would be about setting the conversations up correctly and it would be more strategic.
InCommon Steering Committee-There was discussion amongst the group as to the 9 topics and where they should fit into the calendar. The addition of Federation 2.0 was mentioned as an additional topic and several folks agreed. It was also thought that there could be a possible combination of a couple of the topics.
Seamless Access- Ann West gave a brief overview of the service. Kristi Holmes agreed this would be a good discussion, suggested for consideration to think about how this relates to other use cases that might be relevant. This would be a great way to engage folks and would be well received on campus.
Marketing/branding/positioning update- Dan Gerding will have a report back in early summer
Growing IAM Community: Four areas that will be talked about, Collaboration Success Program, Standard training for Software components, IAM on line and CAMP/ACAMP
The Internship program - Discussion about why limit it to just Catalysts (of the Catalyst Program)? There would be a benefit to educational institutions as well. It could be a sales pitch, I'm an I2 certified... Would help grow capital. Discussion on maybe combining those positions and build a community across institutions among the students.This brought conversation about building staying power across the community. There would be benefits to having a certification program .
This would be a good opportunity to do outreach and help increase the diversity of our community. Others were in agreement on combining internships and felt it would build staying power in the community.
https://www.trustedci.org/fellows/about Von Welch shared the link about what trustedci is doing. It's not limited to students. It is a fellows program, basically over 20 weeks they show up to a symposium. There is an identity management component in there also. We try to give them the basics of cyber security.
Discussions of making basecamp free to some students, offering a discount for CAMP Week for students to attend . Like the idea of a certification program. How do we help students contribute to the portfolio? The catalysts are interested in employing students to do the work.
The question was asked if Incommon offers some type of badge for someone that knows a lot or has a good knowledge of the program. Maybe Catalyst would want to fund/sponsor this idea. It could go beyond the traditional internship.
The committee will work on the sequence/prioritization of each of the topics for the remainder of the year including the need for time toward the end of the year for discussing recruiting for when others end their term.
Talks about community fatigue around adoption could be added to the conversation. Also, business processes could be of interest to steering that can be added. We want to make sure we have the items that need to be covered in the year on our radar. It was also asked if we want to add Federation 2.0 as a topic and their was agreement that it would be a good topic and the Federation 2.0 report (once it is completed) could be a great start at that. Another topic in the original list “Emerging business, threats, opportunities” is worth spending time on.
Kevin reminded the group that he is working with Klaas Wierenga with the global CEO Group on drafting a charter for the working group. Still out 4- 8 weeks to get approval.
Meeting adjourned
