InCommon Operations Notifications

[Tom Scavo <>]

You are receiving this message because you are an InCommon Site
Administrator or have otherwise subscribed to this mailing list. This
message is FYI only.

Later this afternoon, after the daily metadata signing process,
InCommon Operations will deploy a number of new or updated user
interfaces to the Federation Manager:

1) A new user interface for IdP operators to self-assert membership in
the Hide From Discovery Category [1]

2) An updated user interface to manage Requested Attributes [2] in SP metadata

3) Two new user interfaces for Metadata Export, one for IdPs and one for SPs

Note: InCommon Operations will begin exporting metadata at scale to
eduGAIN on February 15, 2016. At that time, all IdP metadata will be
exported by default. All SPs that have explicitly opted in will be
exported as well. Site Administrators choose whether or not to include
their metadata in the Export Aggregate [3] via the user interfaces
mentioned above. You can do that any time between now and February 15.

If you have questions about using these new features in the Federation
Manager, please contact us at
