All,

I present to you the application of:
 * Uganda/RIF

who has Signed the eduGAIN Declaration, has a policy based on various federation policies that were the precursor to the policy template, is self declaring their federation as a production service and is wanting to join the global R&E federated environment. 

You can find more detailed information about the federation under "eduGAIN Candidates” at
    https://technical.edugain.org/status.php

which contains links to their policy, MRPS and SAML2 Metadata Feed. 

To provide guidance on your assessment I’ve performed a summary (attached) of their policy and MRPS.

This application is from an organisation that is closely aligned with the GÉANT community via their participation in the AfricaConnect projects and their collaboration with UbuntuNet Alliance and NORDUnet. They are also the eduroam .ug roaming operator.

So I ask the following federations to specifically review the submission by RIF:

 * Luxembourg / eduID.lu

 * Macedonia/AAIEduMk

 * Moldova / LEAF

 * The Netherlands / SURFconext

 * New Zealand / Tuakiri

All eduGAIN members can (and should) provide feedback on this but to share the burden of review around these five (5) federations have a specific responsibility. 

If you have any questions please contact the RIF team (Alex + Hellen) that are subscribed to this mailing list as well as CC’d to this message.

Formal components of the membership process will be via the eduGAIN Steering Group mailing list. 

Thanks,

Brook Schofield
