Hi,

For the federations using opt-out, have you made any efforts to promote private campus services to opt-out?

I know this was discussed in the context of discovery with DFN-AAI’a opt-out some time ago, but since the UK switch the problem is exacerbated.

Take for example Newcastle University, it has exposed 100 entities, most of which are used by Newcastle only. I feel that at this rate we are going the limits of our IdP metadata processing limits (whether Shibboleth IdP’s or otherwise) sooner than I considered during the DFN discussion.
