2) Minutes

3) Trent's email
http://groups.google.com/group/wg-ulx/browse_frm/thread/6dea05e0dcb854c0#
...
Paul: This in process. Sounds like we'll use Google code as the repository.
4) ULX and the HTTP request header
- Should we include ISA-related preference info in HTTP request header
- Info
*# the #the user's choice of cloud selector URL- the user's active client selector capabilities (if present)
- the user's set of preferred service providers (e.g. IdPs)
- How?
- Long term: Browsers could build this in
- Short term: a small browser extension could implement
- Why?
- Would provide a standard way for the user to exert their preference
JohnBob: WRT to #3.Bob: A #3 above could be provided by a minimally active client.
Scott: We're really trying to standardize a cookie. The SAML cookie got messed up in the transition to Kantara. You have to have some way to describe the IdP.
...
Scott: What we're proposing here may be a more reasonable 1/2 way step. But the problem of making this other than just a cookie is that this raises the bar for RP a bit. OTOH this moves away from cookie nonsense a bit.
5) Role of the icons in the UX
Scott: It turns out the contrast between what Andreas was doing and what the latest Shib stuff is smaller than I realized. They already have found that there are cases where the text name of an IdP is the same, so having an icon there helps. I still don't love it but I see that there's an argument for adding an icon.
...
Paul: AI: I'll talk to Valeska about this "role of the icons (and hover text) in the UX". (In both the "see all" and the "filtered view"). What kinds of icons are going to be required based on different roles. The descriptive text is in this same bucket. How do you discriminate between two IdPs have the same name (e.g. two universities with the same name (which has already shown up as a use case in the Shib world).
