  • Continued low but committed turnout on calls (wavering either side of quorum which is currently at 6) is out of balance with the 82 participants & 98 list subscribers, suggesting many 'observers'.
  • Very limited capacity and capability to maintain and further develop the eGov Implementation Profile of SAML 2.0, causing delays on the start of this work
  • Following closely proposed Cloud WG and its relationship to eGov.
