Subject: [security-services] Minutes for Focus Group Telecon Tue 2-Apr-2002



Agenda
-------
Joe: intend to discuss ds-1-10


prateek: any word from RSA about license intent?

rob: we're meeting later today, can you (chairs) send comments?

Joe: mentioned karl's note, need to request clarification from Karl about the
intent of the new approach. 

[Action 1] joe/Jeff to solicit clear IPR procedure statement from Karl



ds-1-10  discussion
-------------------

[ds-1-13 is closely related]

applicable messages..

New Issue: SubjectConfirmation descriptions 
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200201/msg00247.html

ISSUE: core-27: Should AuthenticationMethods andConfirmationMethods be listed
in the same subsection? 
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200203/msg00006.html



hal: will settle for addressing this with a warning that no matter what the
ConfirmationMethod says, it's the profile that needs to describe precise use of
SubjectConfirmationData material. 

e.g. to use a kerberos ConfirmationMethod & SubjectConfirmationData, one needs
to specify whether the included ticket is a TGT or a service ticket and other
stuff. in contrast, AuthenticationMethod is relatively easy to include in
assertions and base subsequent policy on. 

prateek: suggests we retain list as AuthenticationMethods, prune as
appropriate, then define ConfirmationMethods in the bindings spec as
appropriate.

[further discussion around Prateek's proposal, culminating in...]


Agreed-to resolution to DS-1-10, DS-1-13:

re-label core-29 section 7.1 as "Authentication Methods"
 include some appropriate note in subsequent version of core-xx to the effect..

  "ConfirmationMethod identifiers and their semantics/use are defined in
   SAML bindings & profiles. Some are presently defined in [SAMLBind]."

 need to drop a few AuthenticationMethods, clarify the prose describing 
 the rest.


Presently defined & employed ConfirmationMethods (and attendant
SubjectConfirmationData values) will be defined in appropriate places in the
subsequent version of bindings-model-xx, and it'll also have a (sub)section
summarizing the presently defined & employed ConfirmationMethods...
 holderOfKey
 bearer
 sender vouches
 artifact


wrt the OASIS-specific URIs identifying AuthenticationMethods &
ConfirmationMethods..
 use "am" in AuthenticationMethods listed in core
  e.g. urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:am:password

 use "cm" in ConfirmationMethods listed in bindings
  e.g. urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:1.0:cm:Holder-Of-Key



[Action 2] Hal will make a proposal for the changes to core-29 section 7.1, as
described above. Will try to make the proposal by COB today.


[Action 3] Prateek to make appropriate changes to bindings-model-13 and issue
new spec by Thur 4-Apr. 

[Action 4] Phill to incorp Hal's suggested changes to core-29 within 24hrs of
Hal's proposal. 


-----------
Editorial fixes to various docs

[Action 5] Phill, Prateek, perhaps others..

Assuming the editors agree and the suggestions aren't found controversial by
others, then these suggestions (and others submitted by today) should be
incorporated..

done.


phill: one thing not done is the assertion schema location in the protocol
schema. will have to do that when we post to the website. 

scott: perhaps don't need to point schemalocation to exact location, but
perhaps can do relative schemalocation & the namespace. 

It's one thing to point authoritatively at, say, the dsig schema, but another
to have our protocol schema reference our assertion schema 

we should treat schema location as only a "hint" -- it can't be normative. 

summary:

In anycase, we'll ensure there's something reasonable in the protocol schema
for the assertion schema location at final publication time.
