  • No specific comments.
  • Discussion took place to explain potential relationship consideration to MDX spec. Advantage of MDX is that you can download a subset of metadata to your needs.
  • Issues explained around multiple trust anchors.  Relates to ICAM SAML 2.0 profile where ICAM collects meta-data and re-purposes it so that RPs only need to trust one end point. 
    MDX is really an implementation tool that makes using multi-protocol tools easier across communities.

5. Entity naming issues. 

http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/fiwg/Entity+Naming+Conventions
Discussed concepts around naming "forever" should not include something that will change or go away in x time understanding that the name would stand until an entity got acquired or otherwise. Discussion around who assigns the names---specifically an over-arching org or the entity themselves.

6. AOB
None
