[Tf-aai] Taskforce Meeting in Utrecht 11.5. ?

[Martin Matthiesen]

Dear Taskforce members,

The Centre Meeting in Utrecht is coming up and there is a slot for us to meet in person:

11.5. 13:00. in Utrecht.

The participation in the last VC was rather limited (3, including me), so I'd like to know how many of you are intending to come to the Centre Meeting in the first place. Agenda suggestions are of course welcome too.

I am intending to intensify contacts to Dariah AAI, they are forming an AAI Workgroup and their first meeting is in June (no specific date set yet). I have talked to Martin Haase and basically invited myself to this meeting, if anyone of you is interested to join I am sure we can work something out.

In other news, also EGI, the European Grid Initiative is active in AAI: http://www.egi.eu/news-and-media/newsletters/Inspired_Issue_23/aairoadmap.html

Well, they might be in for a suprise with this statement:

> During April 2016 it is expected that the EGI AAI will join eduGAIN as service provider in the Research & Scholarship entity category. Through eduGAIN, the EGI services will automatically 
> become available to more than 2000 universities and institutes that are connected to the 38 eduGAIN Federations

But as we also know: things do get better over time.

Cheers,
Martin
