All,
I’m pleased to welcome Saudi Arabia / Maeen Identity Federation as the 68th member of eduGAIN.
Thanks to the work of all Steering Group members in voting, assessing the federations and providing them feedback and the work of our newest member in working toward participating in eduGAIN.
The summary of the vote is:
* 39 votes cast
* 30 in the affirmative
* 4 federations (eduId.hu, Edugate, RCTSaai, фEDUrus) regain their voting right.
* 2 federation (RASH, CAFe) joins the excluded list.
* 14 federations remain on the excluded list.
* 54 federations on the active voting list (51 +4 regained -2 lost +1 new member)
The status of active/excluded voters is listed at https://wiki.geant.org/display/eduGAIN/eduGAIN+Votes
The eduGAIN OT will work with this new member to complete any remaining membership and metadata exchange processes.

I have the pleasure to announce that the following federation has progressed through the assessment of their policy and largely responded to the feedback by their peer federations.
These federations are:
* Saudi Arabia / Maeen Identity FederationMaeen serves the constituency of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and is operated by the NREN (Maeen) and is a collaborator within the ASREN community.You can review the supplied information which is accessible from the eduGAIN Technical Status Page:
https://technical.edugain.org/status.php
These documents have been assessed by your peers and pending issues have been raised via the eduGAIN-Discuss mailing list and resolved.
And as per section 3 of of the eduGAIN Constitution, I believe that the application by there federations meets all of the mandatory requirements for eduGAIN membership and as such now provide that information to the membership of eduGAIN to seek your confirmation via this vote:
While there are 67 eduGAIN members at this point in time - only 51 members have an active voting right (see: https://wiki.geant.org/display/eduGAIN/eduGAIN+Votes ).
This will be a vote by simple majority from today (Sunday 16th June 2019) until Tuesday 2nd July 2019.
The vote can end early if 26 votes in the affirmative are received before the deadline from the 51 active voting members. Otherwise more positive than negative votes are required by the deadline. Note that only one (1) vote is accepted from an eduGAIN participant and the delegate/deputy should determine who votes on behalf of their federation.
Votes cast by members that have been excluded from voting will restore their voting rights for future voting occasions but will not affect the outcome of this vote.Votes cast by the 16 members that have been excluded from voting (AAIEduMk, ARNaai, ArnesAAI, CAFMoz, COLFIRE, Edugate, eduId.hu, eduIDM.ma, FIDERN, HAKA, Oman KID, PEANO, RCTSaai, SIR, WAYF & фEDUrus) will restore their voting rights for future voting occasions but will not affect the outcome of this vote. These members should select “I wish to regain voting right” to restore their vote.
I'll provide an update on the progress of voting (and a reminder) in one (1) week from today.
The OT is responsible for validating and accepting the metadata of these federations if/once their status of member is accepted.
