ULX Telecon 2010-03-17

We reviewed the IDPS/ULX common charter document that had been prepared by Philippe Clement and sent to the list today

Section (2) PURPOSE: Problem: There is a mention made of the "Liberty Identity Provider Selector MRD" people may not have access to
Section (2) PURPOSE: Strike "the ISA" and replace "identity services" with "identity services including identity providers and identity selection agents (ISA)s"
Section (2) PURPOSE: second and fifth bullets also mention the Liberty MRD
Section (3) SCOPE: fourth bullet (same problem as above)
Section (3) SCOPE: (new) sixth bullet: fine as is
Section (3) SCOPE: ninth bullet: fine as is
Section (4) DRAFT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: first bullet addition: fine
Section (4) DRAFT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: second bullet addition: this may be fine, we'd like to learn more about the nature of the ISA (e.g. does it assume an unmodified browser?)
Section (4) DRAFT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: third bullet addition: we don't entirely understand this. Seems to imply that we shouldn't make up entirely new things; try to reuse existing SAML metadata. Perhaps "newly designed features should be as compatible and consistent as possible with existing specifications" is part of the intent here.
Section (4) DRAFT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: fourth bullet: This might be okay.
Section (6) LEADERSHIP: Addition of Philippe to carry forward the IDPS WG work makes sense to us.
