Subject: Re: [security-services] goal statement thread
At the F2F this past week, we got unanimous consent on the following wording: == The goals of the SAML 2.0 effort include: o Addressing issues and enhancement requests that have arisen from experience with real-world SAML implementations and with standards architectures that use SAML, such as the OASIS WSS and XACML work. o Adding support for features that were deferred from previous versions of SAML for schedule reasons, such as session support, the exchange of metadata to ensure more interoperable interactions, and collection of credentials. o Converging on a unified technology approach for identity federation by integrating the ID-FF specifications contributed to the TC by the Liberty Alliance. == However, JeffH pointed out to me that we let a small bug creep in. Though we mention "ID-FF" in the third bullet, Version 1.1 (which is all that has been contributed so far) is not technically called ID-FF. Only that portion of Version 1.2 that we hope will be contributed soon can be given that label. On Tuesday I plan to make a motion to simply strike the "ID-FF" part. Since we already mention the identity federation focus of the contributions in that same bullet, I think the remainder will be fine: "Converging on a unified technology approach for identity federation by integrating the specifications contributed to the TC by the Liberty Alliance."
