Hello all,

One more comment: 

It seems that the Governance body has changed to AARNIEC (from a committee) if my memory is correct; i am looking into the doc ver. 0.92.

Is the AARNIEC both the governor and the operator of the RoEduNetID then? If right,the policy document should be refined more.

The document states as if the governance body and the operation body were separate (e.g. "Deciding future directions and enhancements for the Federation together with the Federation Operator who prepares the plans", "Approving changes to the Federation Policy prepared by the Federation Operator", and more).

Kind Regards,

Jinyong Jo
