Probably need to vote within the group on a committee draft that goes to the board for approval.
In the SAML 2.0 implementation profile, IIP-ALG06 states:
The following DigestMethod algorithms SHOULD be supported for both of the above key transport algorithms for backward compatibility.
*http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1
This requirement should be corrected to read:
The following DigestMethod algorithms MUST be supported for both of the above key transport algorithms for backward compatibility.
*http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#sha1Options include publish errata, or bump version number to 1.1 or 2.0
Colin believes that a version number bump with this edit will not require a non-member re-ballot according to the operating procedures
Should we add links to errata wiki to both documents while we are at it? (Where is the errata wiki link?)

Approval of 10/16 meeting minutes
Discussion of handling revision to implementation profile
AI: Scott will update the document and send a local diff to the list. We are keeping SHA2, making SHA1 support a MUST.
AI: Keith run the diff past Colin to make sure it’s OK without a reballot.
Definitely not 2.0.
Group recommends 1.1.
Don’t need a re-review if the change does not break implementations, per Kantara Operating Procedures v3.0
Technically, you can never change a SHOULD to a MUST in a non-breaking change
Practically, very few implement SHA2 at this level, and almost everyone implements SHA1. So practically, this is a non-breaking change. No one has built a SAML stack based on this yet.
Make it clear to Colin what we’re doing, make sure he’s sound with it.
AI: Keith check with Colin on if there is any type of set practice with regard to inclusion of errata link in a document.
Update from Bella and Colin
AI: Nick post minutes, update previous minutes to approved.
