  • Actions from the previous phone call
    • Loukik to describe his idea of phases (i.e., phased prototyping approach) - DONE
    • Candido to email some class diagrams for all the classes that he has designed/planning to implement - DONE
    • Candido (Maurizio) to talk to Diego and others about TLS in the specs document and the different between the document specification and what we are thinking to implement using WS-Security profiles. Candido will talk to Diego about this instead, keeping in mind the discoveries from the Grid world- ONGOING
    • All - read the WS-Auth profiles for SAML assertion and X.509 certificate - DONE
    • Jeff to investigate details on technology and techniques used by the Grid community - ONGOING
  • What we have learnt so far?
    • All agree with using (1) and (2) in the phases defined as a starting point.

ACTION: Candido will find out from his colleagues about the validation method on the AS (being developed by JRA5). Candido will find out if the validation process makes use of revocation list and if the revocation list is updated asynchronously.

    • Jeff mentioned that X.509 with TLS can improve performance compared to WS-Security profiles. This is coming from some grid documents. All agree that we will start WS-Security and keep the option open to use TLS in future if there are performance gains (as promised.
