Notes

- Status of IdP-side  (Daniela)

• https://wiki.geant.org/display/gn41sa5/IdP+survey
• https://wiki.geant.org/display/gn41sa5/Federation+survey
• Updated wiki with background information and idea of "maturity" report for federations: 1.4 Service Aspects of Assurance. That could serve as the content for the self-assessment tool (see below)
• Started with template to ask IdPs about their maturity level
• Started with White Paper

- Status of SP-side (Mikael)

• Level of Assurance survey for SP communities
• Interviews done: EGI, WLGC, PRACE, CLARIN, ELIXIR, photon/neutron.
• Summary of interview results (in Google)
• Interviews scheduled:DARIAH, LIGO.
• Interviews not scheduled: anyone?

- AARC deliverable MNA3.1: draft

- AARC MNA3.1 milestone 11/2015 and GN4 report 11/2015

• the two reports can reference each others 
• the two documents can then be provided up in the project structure (Licia/David in AARC, Ann/Nicole in GN4) and asked for the plan for the next steps (GN4-2 structure changes, LoA in a JRA?)

- development of a tool to assist IdPs to self-assess their LoA.

• Stakeholders: AARC NA3.1 "LoA", NA3.2 "SIRTFI", GN4.1.4 "Service aspects of LoA"
• we cold take an open space slot in EWTI2015 in Vienna 2-3 Dec for tool planning
• questions:
  • to what extent the tool can automate the evaluation of the answers?
  • what kind of evidence the IdP admin needs to present to the tool on its conformance? Does his/her self-evaluation need to be supported by some kind of documentation?
  • how does this fit the larger picture of eduGAIN monitoring? Do the various tools somehow integrate (e.g. anyone can throw IdP's entityID to some UI and it presents all the various monitoring/testing results for the IdP)?
  • Will the community approve an approach where the self-assessment tool exports an Entity Category attribute directly to eduGAIN MDS?
