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.

- 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 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
