  1. Shibboleth&Shibboleth Consortium

  2. Background • Shibboleth evolved out of Internet2 Middleware Activity in 2000, with first release in 2003. • Significant funding from Internet2 (USA) and latterly JISC (UK) resulted in wide adoption by research and education communities enterprises around the world. • Used by 26 national federations (as of May 2013): UKAMF (UK), InCommon(US), SWITCHaai(Switzerland), AAF (Australia), AAI@EduHR (Croatia), ACOnet (Austria), Belnet (Belgium), CAF (Canada), CAFe (Brazil), CARSI (China), CESNET (Czech Republic), COFRe (Chile), DFN-AAI (Germany), Edugate (Ireland), eduID.hu(Hungary), GakuNin (Japan), GRNET (Greece), Haka (Finland), IDEM (Italy), LAIFE (Latvia), Tuakiri (New Zealand), RCTSaai (Portugal), RENATER (France), SIArnesAAI (Slovenia), SWAMID (Sweden), TAAT (Estonia) and ULAKAAI (Turkey).

  3. Shibboleth Consortium • Ongoing funding for development, maintenance and support was identified as problematic. • Aimed to build on Shibboleth adoption and broaden funding base, as well as derive benefits from increasing commercial usage. • Recognised that formal structure was required to receive contributions, pay developers, and determine the technical direction of the project. • Internet2, Janet and SWITCH agreed to form Shibboleth Consortium and signed charter establishing this in April 2013. • Developing membership to ensure sustainability.

  4. Consortium Membership • Principal Members (those contributing €120K per year) Internet2 (US), Janet (UK) & SWITCH (Switzerland) • Federation Members ACOnet (Austria), NII/GakuNin (Japan), CSC/Haka (Finland), RENATER (France) & NORDUnet (Nordic region) • Academic / Non-Profit Members Carnegie Mellon University (US) & LIGO Scientific Collaboration (US) • Commercial Members TBD?

  7. Project Update • All products in maintenance mode pending release of IdPv3, apart from security issue response • Heartbleed Update • Relatively minimal impact on project, as opposed to federations, deployers • SP patch issued within a week • Longer term: V3 likely to include a separately generated key for SOAP security, and a continued goal of de-emphasizing back channel profiles

  8. IDPv3 Status • Probably 80% feature complete • Major TODOs: • Install / upgrade scripts • Porting uApprove functionality • Limited logout capability added to 2.4 • ECP (due to goal of not requiring container managed authn) (initial work done after TNC, will be in alpha) • Polishing error handling (some work done after TNC) • Audit Logging • Documentation • Nearing an alpha release, but documentation is the main hold up

  9. IDPv3 Config Compatibility • Aiming for compatibility with: • relying-party.xml (but deprecated) • attribute-resolver.xml • attribute-filter.xml • Not even trying: • handler.xml (*) • internal.xml (*) Some kind of migration help for simple login configs likely

  10. IDPv3 Config Changes • Much more use of native Spring, particularly internally, also to deal with advanced features • Properties file(s) used to configure many common settings without editing XML • User-editable and should-not-edit files are separated for clarity • Metadata sources separated from RelyingParty/Profile configuration • Authentication is completely different, but out of the box capability similar

  11. 2015-2016 Planning • Planning based on flat resources; reductions will require more prioritization of maintenance responsibilities against future work • Seeking community input on future projects

  12. Givens • Stabilization work on V3 (small to medium) • Java 8 support for V2 (small) • SP Patch / Refresh (small) • EDS Patch / Refresh (small)

  13. Impactful Items • OpenID Connect (l) • SP OAuth Authorization (m/l) • Central Discovery Service Refresh (m) • TestShib (m) • Consent Enhancements (s) • Atlassian Plugins (s) • V2 Support past mid-'15 (s) • Product Docs (m) • Developer Docs (m) • Conceptual Docs (m) • SAML Logout (m) • SP Ext for IIS7+ (s) • Java SP (l)

  14. Questionables • SAML GSS-API Production Implementation • Major undertaking without significant outside help or long development cycle • SP Feature Update • Continues to be fairly ahead of the feature adoption curve • Office 365 • Recent Microsoft announcement casts doubt on need for WS-Trust support • OAuthIdP integration • Interoperability and scoping questions • Relationship to IdP feature set unclear

  15. Projected Income & Expenditure(Aug 2013-Jul 2014) • Income £302,149 • Principal Members £199,426 • Other Members £61,979 (Received to date = £267,610) • Expenditure £253,262 • Developers £185,712 • Consortium Management £43,686 • Travel £15,000 • Website £5,000 • Other £3,864 • Internet2 Expenditure $147,786 (~£88,244)
