Subject: RE: [saml-dev] any interest in
another SAML InterOp - this time f or a European audience?
Hello,
Regards,
Dee
Hi Hal - I don't
think I heard that Burton was already looking
to do this in Europe, but I should have
figured that one out.
So, our marketing
group has now contacted both Jim and Phil to work out with Burton as to which
conference might be appropriate if there is sufficient interest in doing
something in Europe. Our interest
was simply to keep the SAML exposure up and we don't care whose stage it's
on... We'll throw our support behind the Burton event if they want
to run it.
Even if all of the
previous vendors can't make it, it may still be desirable to go with those
that can get there.
I think the timeframe
for these events (Sept/Oct) makes it difficult to either expand the scope to
different SAML functionality or to open it up to vendors that weren't at the
previous one. At least I believe that's the case for us given our
schedule pressures, etc.

Hal and Rob,
I had this same discussion this morning with Phil Schacter from Burton. He
is going to think about it and get back to us (directly or through Jim).
Sun is interested in both and similar to Entegrity would attend if there
was critical mass regardless.
The idea of demonstrating new aspects is interesting, but the work to do it
will be similar to what we did the first time. Calculating ROI is still a crap
shoot.
I'll be curious to see what the rest of you decide. Will we open up the
participation again?
Don;

I am going to
assume that everybody but Jim is on saml-dev, and not copy the long list of
participant emails.
There was some
discussion in SF about doing the European Catalyst, so in some sense Burton
Group made the first offer.
The general
reaction was most people, especially the smaller vendors did not have the
resources to do it again in Europe and that the
expected PR benefits would be much smaller to do the same thing again.
Demonstrating a new aspect of SAML would be another
matter.
This is essentially
Entegrity Solutions current position, although I suppose if the other 11
vendors were going we might rethink it. ;-)

Hi folks - I was asked whether
there'd be any interest in doing an interop event similar to what we did
at Catalyst, but for a European audience. Specifically, my marketing
folks have asked if folks would like to do something at the upcoming RSA
Conference in Paris
October 7-10.
If so, please pass along a
contact and I'll have someone get in touch.
