Alan: Operations advisory group.
Davide: Couple of things. 1) Looking at new federations: limited number of entities. Setting up federation and joining eG at the same time. Learning as they go. 2) It takes a lot of time to pre-assess. 3) Assessment by SG takes a long time (2-3 weeks).
Licia: Process can be improved. Other part: resources. What do we do when technology is failing on new members.
Chris: Verification process.
