CONVENER: Brook

SCRIBE: Brook

# of ATTENDEES: Peter, Montonori (2)

MAIN ISSUES DISCUSSED 

  1. Clarified the problem statement. Different to the solution proposed in WAYRN.
  2. Clarified what this problem actually is. It is the brokenness of existing publisher ACL mechanisms.
  3. The problem will become more confusing with the deployment of IPv6.
  4. The problem does not solve organisations without FIXED address ranges (i.e. commodity internet access).

  5. Answers to Questions:

    1. Q: Should this be its own attribute? (as it is in the UK) - NO

    2. Q: Should it be an entitlement value? (i.e. CIDR=192.168.12.0/23) - NO

    3. Q: Should we implement this for simpleSAMLphp? - NO

    4. Q: Is a geolocation entitlement value also of interest/value? (i.e. latlong=44.802453,20.48491) - NO

  6. Metadata has the Geolocation for Discovery Hints - but this is NOT authoritative location of use data. Semantics are different.
  7. ...

ACTIVITIES GOING FORWARD / NEXT STEPS

  1. Don't standardise this work. Don't spread this mess. Don't present to other federations.
  2. Brook can continue to talk about location - but not about this! (see the Location Awareness Work Item from TF-MNM).
