eduGAIN PoC

The eduGAIN service activity will set up a POC in order to evaluate the new OpenID Federation (OIDfed) standard and wants to eventually create an official eduGAIN Technology Profile to extend the current service.

The Trust and Identity Incubator has over the years build considerable experience with developing tooling, and implementing OpenID Fed in various products and languages, as well as evaluating e.g. REFEDs specifications in the context of OIDfed.

This activity seeks to contribute to the eduGAIN PoC by:

• Sharing existing experience and providing a sparring partner to the eduGAIN PoC team
• Contribute to standards and policy development for eduGAIN and national federations (upon request by the eduGAIn PoC team)
• Developing or further enhancing software tools, including, but not limited to:
  • Contribute to existing software development for the eduGAIN PoC
  • Build/Productise a (scalable) resolver which can be deployed by fedops and eduGAIN
  • Further improve visualisation and reporting tooling
  • Further improve Go based OP/RP

The incubator will work on these in close collaboration with the eduGAIN PoC team.
