IdP as a Service Working Group

[Nick Roy <>]

Hi all,

Thanks for the excellent work on the survey. I have a few late-breaking comments:

IdPs aren’t registered with eduGAIN, they are registered in federations that are members of eduGAIN. A subtle but important distinction. You may want to rephrase the question to something like "Do you have an Identity Provider registered in InCommon or in another federation that is a member of eduGAIN?"

The question about MFA should probably allow multiple selections, since someone might want to pick "Duo" and then fill in something like "Web Auth" for their "Other" choice.

In the feature grid, the last option starts with "Click to wri" - that is probably something that should be deleted.

Thank you,

Nick

Hi all,

Please see below for a working survey (thanks to E.J. and Duquesne for hosting!):

As discussed on our calls, this survey is dynamic to minimize irrelevant questions (e.g., it asks you what factors are preventing you from joining InCommon or another federation only if you indicate that you are not currently a member, but are interested).  Please let us know by Thursday, July 18th if you would like to recommend any changes to the survey.

For distribution, I would like to propose that we send this out in two waves - first to senior IT leadership groups, and subsequently to a wider distribution (such as the Educause list).  I think it would be useful to compare/contrast any concerns or priorities identified by senior leadership vs. other technical staff, as it will be important to consider both perspectives in recommendations moving forward.  

By our next call, I expect to have some data we can share from the first distribution, so our discussion can be focused around 1) results so far, 2) how to share raw data with the group for further analysis/inquiry, and 3) distribution of the second wave of surveys.  The data we collect from this exercise will factor into every one of this group's deliverables, so we'd really like to make sure that development, distribution, and analysis of the results is a team effort.

As always, we appreciate your engagement and welcome your feedback!

Mary
