*COmanage Documentation*

Rebecca is on hold in her effort to document how to install and how to work with COmanage. Chris needs time to get COmanage working in order for Rebecca to begin that. In the meantime, Rebecca is working under Jim's direction on documenting a vision for collaboration management and the humanities. She is looking at the Penn State Institute for the Arts and Humanities as well as at external humanities collaborations.

*Call with Dutch*

Wiki MarkupThe April 1 call with the Dutch was postponed. Most likely a call will be held on Thurs. April 8. \
[AI\] (Ken) will email the COmanage-dev list about logistics for a call with the Dutch.

*COmanage as a Service*

It's clear COmanage has an important role in the area of identities, groups and attributes. Questions have been raised on whether a service like COmanage will run applications directly, or whether it will manage identity and access for apps run and hosted by participating organizations/VOs. It has been speculated that in the future, most applications will be run by Google Apps for Education. Ken thinks COmanage will retain a role running applications in the future, especially with institutions being concerned about privacy and compliance issues with Google-provided applications.

It was noted that both options should be open -- COmanage running applications and COmanage providing identity services but not running applications.unmigrated-wiki-markup

\[AI\] (Ken) will create slides about up the COmanage paths and which ones are useful.

*GENI Meeting and Attribute Aggregation Issue*

...

COmanage will most likely need to be registered in the InCommon federation as an SP, either part of a campus SP, or as a sponsored SP.

Wiki Markup\[AI\] (Ken) will develop and distribute flow diagrams showing attribute aggregation strategies.

*Servicing VOs*

...

Within Internet2 or InCommon, can we get a several-year commitment to providing COmanage as a service to interested VOs? Tom suggested a progression of smaller steps, including asking a hosting campus to host the applications. A multi-year commitment to COmanage is easier if it does not include hosting applications.  \
 [AI\] (Ken) will talk with Steven about providing COmanage service to the VOs Steven is in contact with.
