Middleware Announcements

[Renee Frost <>]

The Internet2 Middleware Initiative is pleased to 
announce the release of Grouper version 
1.3.0.  The Grouper Groups Management Toolkit is 
designed to function as the core element of a 
common infrastructure for managing group 
information across integrated applications and 
repositories. It enables project managers, 
departments, institutions, and end-users to 
create and manage institutional and personal groups.

This is a significant new release that includes a 
new and experimental web services interface, an 
improved user interface, and improved overall performance.

For more information on Grouper, including 
downloads, documentation, and detailed list of 
improvements, enhancements, and fixes, refer to http://grouper.internet2.edu/.

Development of the Grouper Groups Management 
Toolkit was supported with funding from 
University of Chicago and the University of 
Bristol with additional support from Internet2 
through the NSF SDCI Middleware Initiative (NSF 
Award No. OCI-0721896) and the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC).

Led by the Middleware Architecture Committee for 
Education (MACE), the Internet2 Middleware 
Initiative comprises a number of projects that 
address challenges in the middleware space, such 
as identity and access management. For more
