Subject: Re: [provision] SAML 2.0 Profile of SPML 2.0 Submission v0.5
Oops! I'm sorry. I did not know that I erred in copying the document to the PSTC list. What is the rule? IIRC, I reviewed for Jeff Bohren an earlier draft of this document. During the time when Jeff and I were both on the PSTC, we discussed the need for a "federated provisioning" profile of SPML based on SAML2 and we outlined the approach for such a profile. We also discussed which would be the correct venue for such a proposal, and we decided that the proposal should be submitted to the SSTC, so that it would be perceived as a SAML initiative. We're certainly not trying to steal anyone's IP. When a member suggested that we develop a profile of SPML that used SAML attribute values as its payload, I asked whether anyone knew the status of the work at the SSTC. Robin was kind enough to dig up the link for me. A member has also posted a pointer to a working draft of the SSTC's Change Notify protocol. Is this also a problem? Participants have mentioned this as a proposal of interest to them. We've also posted a link to a description of SAML2 meta-data. At least one of our participants has suggested that we use SAML2 meta- data as a way of declaring which attributes a provider supports for particular operations. Is that okay as long as SAML2 meta-data is a published product of another TC (rather than merely a submission to another TC)?
