Hi Andi,

I have seen the document in your web. Can you synchronise the link
name with the documents (e.g. the link is "edugain Federation Policy" and the
document "eduID Albania Federation Policy")?

In the Federation Policy document there is an incomplete sentence in
page 5 line 8.

Last paragraph of section "Rules of membership" send the reader to the
same section for more information creating a loop. Additionally, in the
point 3 only a specific set of companies are identified "Companies from
ICT ecosystem" but in the document "How to join" any organisation can
become a Service Provider as long as the services provided
promote the academic, research and educational work. They should
identify the same organisations.

The "Data protection" should include some indication for non EU
provider.

Cheers,
Marco
