Hi David et al.,

In response to your question, with no endorsement or criticism
implied, see http://www.terena.nl/tech/refeds/ for information
regarding the REFEDS initiative.  I'm just learning about it myself.
(It does include a reference however to eduroam, as we discussed.)

I believe there will be further discussion of this topic among others
at the next EUGrid PMA meeting (see http://eugridpma.org ).

As I mentioned, I believe we need to get buy-in into the AuthZ
recharter and goals process as quickly as possible, including formal
representation, from such projects as Open Science Grid, the LHC
Computing Grid and/or EGEE, PRAGMA, NAREGI, and other communities
with an active interest in the authorization area, such as Internet2
and EDUCAUSE.  I do not speak for such projects but would like to see
them included... and I am excited about this prospect.

Best,
Alan
