[AI] (SteveO) will post the revised COmanage info sheet on the COmanage website and Emily will send it to out to the COmanage-dev list.

*Burton Group Catalyst Conference*

Burton Group has a Catalyst Conference every year in July. Industry-wide demos are featured, and many demos are typically focused on federations. Internet2 has participated in the past. This could be a good opportunity to showcase COmanage.  

 http://www.catalyst.burtongroup.com/Na09/

Such a COmanage demo for the Catalyst Conference could be branded along with InCommon, or with both InCommon and Internet2.  It could take some time to develop an attention-catching, compelling demo.

[AI] (All) Inform Bob know if you are interested in helping with a COManage demo for the Burton Group Catalyst Conference

*Scholarship Scenarios*

TomB mentioned his discussions with Chad Kainz regarding interest in COmanage for U. Chicago and also from the point of view of scholarship scenarios being considered by the Bamboo Project.  Chad is attending the Bamboo Project Workshop at Brown April 16-18.  It’s hoped that the concept of a scholarship scenario for COmanage will get sharpened and some concrete requirements will emerge.
