An open discussion list for topics related to the eduGAIN interfederation service.

[Terry Smith <t.smith AT aaf.edu.au>]

All,

I’m pleased to conclude this thread by reporting that Saudi Arabia / Maeen Identity Federation is the 68th member of eduGAIN.

As soon as an acceptable metadata feed is made available the OT will verify this and they’ll also be a participant.

Thanks,

Terry.

All,

I present to you the application of Saudi Arabia / Maeen Identity Federation who has signed the eduGAIN Declaration, has a policy based on the policy template, is self declaring their federation as a production service and is wanting to join the global R&E federated environment.

You can find more detailed information about the federation under "eduGAIN Candidates” at:

   https://technical.edugain.org/status.php

which contains links to their policy and MRPS.

This application is from an organisation that is closely aligned with the GÉANT community via their participation in the ASREN community.

So I ask the following federations to specifically review the submission by Maeen:

 * Singapore / SGAF

 * Slovenia / ARNES-AAI

 * South Africa/SAFIRE

 * Spain / SIR

 * Sweden / SWAMID

All eduGAIN members can (and should) provide feedback on this but to share the burden of review around, these five (5) federations have a specific responsibility.

If you have any questions please contact the Maeen Identity Federation team that are subscribed to this mailing list as well as CC’d to this message.

Formal components of the membership process will be via the eduGAIN Steering Group mailing list.
