With: John Krienke, Ann West
Wednesday dinner (Nov. 13) will bring together members of the Assurance Advisory Committee, InCommon Steering, and the InCommon Technical Advisory Committee. There will be small group conversations during the dinner, then conversations after dinner. Each table will be asked to capture a summary of their conversations.
Steve Carmody provided a nice summary of issues on the TAC list, which might serve as a good starting point.
Klara commented that we need to come out of the dinner with some next steps identified, particularly related to speeding up adoption
Jack commented that, based on the recent conversations with Shel, that Steering should start functioning as a board, as envisioned under the Trust and Identity initiative. Potential Face-to-Face agenda items:
John Krienke brought forward a proposal that InCommon waive its fees for up to five qualified K-12 or community colleges involved in a regional K-20 pilot (for 2013 and 2014). (https://spaces.at.internet2.edu/display/INCS/K12+Scholarships) Steering concurred.
John reviewed a request for comment from GEANT regarding a document that sets forth options for governance of eduGAIN. The service is currently governed by the GEANT board, but other options are being considered, given the increasingly broad membership in eduGAIN. The favored option is to evolve the governance to include a broader group. Steering consensus is that InCommon should push for representation on the board. Comments are due November 15.
Nominations for Steering membership are open until Nov. 15. Please spread the word.
