- Rob can add it
- Hal: current mail list link is broken
- we should also have a link to SAML-Dev

  and some of the mail list links do work
- [ACTION] Rob to add link to SAML-Comments & SAML-Dev lists from site,
  and to follow-up with OASIS where necessary

> 
> 4. General issues:
> 
>    (0) Vote on updating SAML 1.0 schema in SAML 1.1 to allow use of
>        ID attributes
>

- Prateek: sent message describing consequences to SAML-Dev, and have
  received a few comments, mostly supportive
- [MOTION] SAML 1.1 extend the SAML 1.0 schema so as to permit the use
  of ID attributes with all SAML 1.0 elements that are relevant to 
  digital signatures (request, response, & assertion)
- Eve: are we adding signature processing options or making more things
  mandatory?
- not sure that we can do more than adding things that are 'strongly
  recommended'
- Scott: yes, but what's in 1.0 is badly broken
- Eve: true, and it has been noted (by Carlisle?) that we are early
  enough in SAML's lifecycle to accommodate some traumatic change
- Jeff: what's there now must be fixed
- [MOTION] add optional ID attributes, of type id, to request, response
  and assertion
- [VOTE] no objections, passed

> 
>    (1) Destination Site First, Flows --- Schedule vote on text on

- Prateek: this is a good-sized addition, so we need a little more
  review, and scheduling a vote should accomplish that
- Jeff: date would actually be 15 April
- Jeff: suggests sending warning email to list
- [ACTION] Prateek to publish draft for Destination Site First Flow,
  soliciting review and comments

- Rob: wants to figure out how we can be more clear on RespondWith
- Prateek: you must return an assertion that meets the RespondWith
  criteria
- Rob: and if the RespondWith conflicts with the query?
- Prateek: an empty assertion seems appropriate
- <some mild complaining about this>
- Need to clarify use of 'assertion' term vs. 'statement' term
- [ACTION] Eve to search for instances of "assertion type" and clarify
  as appropriate
- Eve: would be happy to deprecate RespondWith in the spec
- Rob: would like to deprecate it
- Prateek: concern about its removal, taking a conservative stance
- one could argue that there is no insistence that clients use it, but
  simple clients that can only deal with certain statement types could
  use it
- Jahan: re-read text, and the rules are quite explicit -- the responder
  MUST NOT respond with anything other than what is specified in the
  request
- Rob: yes, that is clear, must have missed it
- Rob: suggests we add an explicit text for degenerate cases where the
  query and its included RespondWith restriction can't produce a useful
  response
- [ACTION] Rob to provide text describing some of the degenerate cases
  of using RespondWith
- CLOSED

>
>    [AI-53]
>    Make progress on Jahan's errata list.

- Eve: hasn't incorporated bindings & profiles errata yet, but errata
  for assertions & protocols has been incorporated
- Jahan: going thru -05 list (sent with meeting agenda)
    - PE2
        - Prateek: believes we concluded that there was no issue
        - Eve: then we are opting for option 1, and we need to do so
          explicitly
        - [MOTION] accept option 1 for PE2
        - [VOTE] no objections, passed
    - PE3
        - similar case with PE2
        - [MOTION] accept option 1 for PE3
        - [VOTE] no objections, passed
    - PE11
        - Rob: had repeated gotten questions on AssertionIDReference,
          so some text on it would be useful
        - Eve: can produce some draft text for us to consider next time
        - [ACTION] Eve to produce draft text for PE11
    - PE12
        - Eve: can accept these first two as editorial
        - line 1085 requires discussion (now it's line 1088)
        - [MOTION] add wording strongly discouraging the use of empty
          URIs, and re-address in 2.0, possibly forbidding their use
        - [VOTE] no objections, passed
        - item 4 is editorial, as with first 2
    - PE13
        - Scott: second item will be superceded by text he will soon
          submit
        - Prateek: authZdecision queries are different
        - means that PE12 item 4 shouldn't be treated like first 2
        - Eve: not sure how authZdecision query is different
        - Prateek: right, there is a subject match here, so it isn't 
          different after all
        - Eve: will produce editorial changes for review
    - PE14
        - Eve: let's please use "-er"
        - Rob: is it used is schema anywhere?
        - Scott: no, but it's in the normative area of <Status>, and
          it uses "-er"
        - Eve: SOAP 1.2 has provided definitions for such things, so
          we should make our definitions distinct from theirs
        - Eve: will attempt to provide edits by next call
    - PE15
        - Eve: has colleague that is a unicode and encoding expert that
          she can consult
        - Hal: does this apply to the artifact?
        - Scott: no, this applies to the POST profile, and the new
          destination-site-first profile
        - will leave this item pending
- so only one PE left open

> 
> 6. Any other business
>

- Eve: we should add an agenda item for next time for setting end 
  for 1.1
- may also want to alert Dee Schur
- Jahan: meeting in two weeks is right in middle of RSA conference, so
  will that be a problem
- doesn't appear so
- We are meeting weekly, so next meeting will be 8 April, at regular
  time
