3.2 SAML V2.0 Errata
Public Review began 16 July 2007, and ends 31 July 2007 (today) No
comments have yet been received.

3.3 Docs pending public review
3.3.1 Documents needing conformance clauses *SAML V2.0 Attribute Sharing
Profile for X.509 Authentication-Based Systems *SAML V2.0 Deployment
Profiles for X.509 Subjects *Identity Provider Discovery Service
Protocol and Profile *SAMLv2.0 HTTP POST "SimpleSign" Binding

Committee needs to approve new drafts after adding conformance clauses
before public review on these.

3.3.2 Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) V2.0 Technical Overview
Waiver on conformance as the doc is informational and not normative?

Brian communicated with TC Admin.
Committee Draft is currently highest status that can be obtained.
No conformance clause necessary. Can choose to perform public review or
not, but not same cycle as normative specification. OASIS is considering
alternative approaches but this is not available yet.

Hal - we have pending edits. Should we update and then do public review
or public review first?

Conor - public review would be good, but first do update Others agree.
Conor - want implementers to review even if not direct target, also
gives publicity.

General agreement to do update and then public review.

Eve asks whether any SSTC members would like to compare this SSTC
technical overview with recent WS-Federation white paper.

Hal notes XML Security Workshop

"Position papers are due 14 August for the Workshop on Next Steps for
XML Signature and XML Encryption to be held 25-26 September in Mountain
View, California, USA, hosted by VeriSign. Attendees will discuss next
steps for the XML Signature and XML Encryption specifications and share
their experiences implementing and developing these standards. Topics
may include interoperability and robustness, performance, legal
requirements for digital signature formats, and the impact of the
evolving XML environment. The Workshop is expected to give its
recommendations to the XML Security Specifications Maintenance Working
Group. The Workshop is free free and open to all, however, submission of
position papers is required of all participants."

5 Action Items

#0282: AuthnContextDecl and AuthnContextDeclRef Confusion
Owner: Eric Tiffany
Eric: No normative changes needed, but some guidance text might be
useful.
Not clear where to put it. List discussion.

#0283: Change final arrows to solid in Tech Overview diagrams
throughout.
In progress

#0286: Research the use of LDAP language tags
Owner: Bob Morgan
Bob: LDAP Attribute profile needs to be updated to fix schema and to
preserve attribute types and tags.
Scott: Suggested tagging options are not preserved and outside of
profile.
Bob: Tags not used much. Language tags are used. Could be XML tags.
Scott: if tags used widely, then need to consider.
Might want to limit to language tags rather than general case.

Scott will update wiki for this document.

Scott will review language tag and offer proposal.
