            Franz-Stefan: 30-day public review just closed without
            comments.

           

        Franz-Stefan makes a motion to create a CS
            ballot to advance the Attribute Predicate Profile CSPRD01 to
            CS status.

            Hal seconds. No objections. Motion approved. 

        Franz-Stefan and Gregory will create the
            ballot request. 

        

            Hal: You need to post a summary of comments and changes
            (i.e., none) to the list and reference that in the TC admin
            request.

            Thomas:

            Two documents published, third stuck because xsd file is
            empty/blank.

            Didn't change since Feb 2010.

            Will pull back this draft and resubmit to sstc.

            

            Scott: Schema is part of spec, so cannot have a normative
            reference, as maturity level would be wrong.  Also, you may
            need to update the acknowledgements.

            Chad:

            Public review closed.

            Some minor comments and typos.

            Will fix and upload new WD.

            Currently in limbo, may decide to keep it there for a while
            to get implementation experience, or may decide to press
            ahead with publication.

            Scott:

            Changes in response to comments.

            Some implementations already out there in the field, which
            is a practical constraint on the magnitude of changes we can
            easily make now.

            Try to have a revised edition done in near future.

            Next step will be WD with the changes.

            

            >    (k) SAML2.0 Approved Errata

            >         - Status: wd-54 uploaded (Scott).

            

            Scott:

            Received couple more errata, will add those before going
            back through review.

            Intend to move this forward before or around end of year,
            especially in light of possible security vulnerabilities in
            existing implementations.

            Red lines are getting crowded; would we want to go to SAML
            2.1 in 2012?

            May be better than piling up errata.

            

            Nate: Not sure we want to change the actual minor version in
            the protocol, but makes sense to make it easier for
            implementers to read spec & errata.  Prefers SAML 2.0.1.

           

        Scott: Compatibility is a must.  Security
            considerations also needs considerable revision, somewhat
            out of date.  We might also want to significantly revise
            conformance requirements, and that may take some time and
            thought.

           

        Hal: Would be useful to have a security
            considerations markup document (without official status)
            with sections that need fixing.

            

            Nate: I'd like to offload as much potential 2.0.1 work as
            possible from Scott, and that's one way to do it.

            New agenda item: Clock Skew

            

            Scott:

            Periodically receive complaints of implementations that
            don't allow clock skew.

            Personally feel this is implementation guidelines material,
            but e.g. Kerberos mentions it in standard.

           Suggest to propose errata to
            address this.

            Opened issue and proposed resolution adding text to
            beginning of document about dates and times, plus callback
            into Conditions and SubjectConfirmation.

      

          

      
Nate: Change proposed text to include
            "should be configurable." Give people 2 weeks to comment on
            that.
