Shibboleth Developers

All of this  conversation pertains to alpha-2:

We agreed on the following sequence of events

Everybody:
        -load alpha-2 source into the cvs

Scott:
        - finish up the target  side runtime (C++)
        - update the command line  debugging tools,  to use new  runtime  api

CMU
        - get the new  command line  tools from Scott
        - use them to test the  HS, AA  with the new  runtime api

Scott
        - modify the SHIRE, SHAR to use the new  runtime api

We also talked about the Registry. Origin sites  joining the Club 
will have  to provide:

	- name(s) of the origin site, as they'd  like  them to appear 
on the WAYF screen
        - dns name of their Handle Server
	- the set of origin  domains they want to  assert attributes 
for (usually,  just the campus)
	- security info for their HS... for the cert corresponding to 
the signing key used by the HS..
		- have the cert signed by one of our trusted roots 
(Verisign, CREN, other? - Thawte test CA?)

                - or, provide us with the cert for the HS

	we talked about putting this info into a simple XML 
document, and  signing it.

We also talked about logistics for source,  builds, distribution, etc

        - we'll load all the source into the CVS repository at I2
        - we'll build alpha-2 from the CVS
	- the initial  alpha-2 distribution will be binaries (like 
alpha-1). Much less documentation to produce, and fewer problems for 
sites doing  the install. And,  I remain pessimistic about the 
licensing issues  getting  resolved....
	- a few weeks after the initial alpha-2 distribution, we'll 
make both  source and  binaries available

We agreed to  run the  WAYF at I2; Steve will talk to tech support at 
I2 about this.

Steve got an AI, to send ldif, etc to  the I2 staff, to get user 
objects  created in their ldap server.
