COmanage Developers List

[Ken Klingenstein <>]

Folks,

  I can't make the COmanage-dev call on Friday (unless, sigh, a flight is delayed) and Heather had already passed the baton to me, so I suggest we cancel the call.  But let's definitely have the call on July 24th - I can lead that if Heather can't. And stuff has been happening, at least in my small part of this - here's some updates.

1. The UK has committed some of Ian Young to the project, who is eager to get going. Steveo - can you add  to the list?

2. Niels and I have been having frequent morning coffee-afternoon beer meetings, working out the technology kinks (connect now works fine without echo but can't use the mac inboard camera, etc) and doing content around it. He and the collab-dev group at Surfnet developed some good materials, including a new deployment model, and circulated it to some of us. I'm going to take it and the running issues slide deck and put it up someplace - whether it is the surfgroepen site or the spaces comanage wiki is something to chew on.

3. The Dutch are also starting to line up resources for applications. Al Fresco, Bedeworks, Foodle, are at least three of the first targets. We certainly need to line up approaches to attributes (which ones, etc) as well as the LDAP/SAML topics. The Dutch are working a lot with MS on Geneva, etc and are comfortable working the .NET and php development environments.

4. The realities of summer suggest that we target Sept 1 as the date to try to assemble the larger mass via some conference mechanism. I'll look for a date for that in a bit, and delay rescheduling the comanage-dev time slot to be Euro-friendly til we do that coordination as well. So let's go with the 24th at 2 pm edt and take it from there.
