Roll Call

Minutes & Notes

Administration: Approve 2012-03-21 Minutes

• Cannot approve minutes; group not at quorum

Administration:

• Quarterly reports
  quarterly reports due from all WG & DG leadership teams by the end of April
  see Reports page for latest in quarterly reports; most of the groups have responded back
  These reports are meant to have more than one function, including: enabling work groups to get snap shot views in to activities and milestones for coordination purposes; and informing the LC if the group is still active or if it is time to close the group and move the work elsewhere
  LC should consider how to raise the visibility of these reports and how to make them more valuable than just "is this group still active or not?"

• Upcoming leadership elections (TFMM, BCTF, HIA, TELCO)
  The call for nominations is being sent out; the process varies per group, depending on when the group was formed

• Subscriber update

  As discussed the BoT approved a motion to add a new class of involvement for Kantara Initiative which is Subscriber (see Definition below 1)

  The Subscriber class was created with a few drivers in mind. One was to consolidate the Assurance Accreditation and Approval fees to an easier and more logical scheme. Another reason was to get this class of membership ready for access to interoperability specific tools. We have a project moving with Geant around the creation of OpenID Connect deployment verification tool which we're seeking to package for a certification in 2013. The idea is that these Subscribers are really geared at certification and approval activities.

  The challenge: LC to discuss further this class of participation and determine rules to accompany it for incorporation in to the operating procedures. The next step is to have input and discussion in the LC toward draft text that would ultimately go for a full membership vote. (The operating procedure management is under the role of the LC and the full membership votes on final proposed changes.)

  I'm requesting this item to be added to the next LC agenda and email discussion / thoughts in advance are more than welcome!
