    • travel arrangements done?
  • Feedback to EC review
    • great presentation by Marina and Maarten!
    • feedback was great, questions were mainly around business models, but it showed that the one of InAcademia was not yet understood properly by the reviewers
  • Risk assessment and opportunities, efficiency gains:
    • Cost and efficiency gain for the diploma use case, the Dutch have done some assessment with calculations on societal benefits (diploma handling in admission and mobility processes)
    • The wallets - in comparison with our interfederation set-up - will allow to move SP effort from N*M to N+M (N # of services, M # number of federations)
      • we assume legal cost (contracts service with federation etc.) outweigh the technical cost (service to federation)by far
      • This is an interesting opportunity offered to our community by going "wallet"
    • big gain for IdPs (in particular IdP operators (applicable for hub-n-spoke federations and IdPs of type eduID-type ones) is, that you can disentangle the often the often mixed-source attribute collections into source-specific credentials:
      • This helps to reduce the legal exposure by properly limiting the "controller" role to credentials you contribute authoritatively, while relying others as "processor".
  • Feedback from DC4EU:
    • apparently lots of discussion (potentially getting out of hand) on the future role of EBSI: the one and only vs. one among many
      • we believe the "one among many" will prevail - simply because we expect many member states to establish their own trust registry services. 
    • we anticipate a heterogeneous future with many ecosystems out there not fitting the "EBSI top-down model" - and our R&E identity interfederation is exactly one such ecosystem. And other ecosystems might choose to publish their own trust roots elsewhere for other reasons. Wallets will need capabilities to cope with that.
  • Feedback from EBSI Wave 3:
    • Christoph, Klaas and Christos are following up with EBSI on getting a trust anchor installed in the EBSI registry (nicely linking to the point above)
    • And trying to link Switch under this root would be a nice story of to tell about crossing EU borders.
