Dear La Vonne Gallo, I am writing you on behalf of Johns Hopkins
University and the other universities listed at the end of this email. We
are all committed to the concept of federated identity management and federated
access to licensed resources. Hence, we have implemented (or are
implementing) the Shibboleth technology at our respective institutions (which
have all also joined the InCommon federation). We have noticed that you have implemented
Shibboleth/SAML within your product line (including Sage Publications and other
online journals you support and host,) and are using the technology to provide
federated access to your services within the UK Access Management
Federation. We, collectively, would like to invite you to also join the
InCommon federation so that we, as well, will be able to federate with
you. You provide valuable services to our user communities, and we would
like to begin integrating those services with the single sign on
infrastructures we have invested in at our respective institutions. Johns Hopkins University would like to be
your sponsor for membership into InCommon and help facilitate the
process. We can provide guidance in terms of federation policies and best
practices. We also have a willing group of universities that should
be able to help with testing and implementation, and we can help coordinate
that as well. If you are interested, we can set up a
conference call to discuss some of the details and initiate the process. Thank you, Foster Zhang, Johns Hopkins University Ken Varnum,
