  1. May I introduce you to eduPerson? Keith Hazelton Sr. IT Architect, UW-Madison http://axle.doit.wisc.edu/~haz TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey, 15-May-2001

  2. Topics • EduPerson in context • Selected facets of the specification • Next steps • Communities of interest in higher education schema work • Questions and discussion TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  3. eduPerson in Context • Wave of higher education directory implementation • Internet2 Middleware Architecture Committee for Education (MACE) directory working group formed • Planning and implementation advice: “LDAP Recipe” • http://www.georgetown.edu/giia/internet2/ ldap-recipe/ TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  4. eduPerson in Context • Community of interest beyond the single campus • Institution-to-institution sharing • Institution-to-vendor access to resources • eduPerson auxiliary object class • Surfing the wave (a modest top-down initiative) • Scope: person entries in our directories • http://www.educause.edu/eduperson/ TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  5. eduPerson 1.0, Jan-2001 • Six attributes introduced by eduPerson • eduPersonAffiliation (more on this in a minute) • eduPersonPrimaryAffiliation • eduPersonNickname • eduPersonOrgDN • eduPersonOrgUnitDN • eduPersonPrincipalName • The rest of the 1.0 spec. offers guidance on attributes from person, orgPerson and inetOrgPerson TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  6. eduPerson 1.0, Jan-2001 • eduPersonAffiliation attribute • Controlled vocabularyspecified • Involves radical simplification • Faculty, staff, student, alum, member, affiliate, employee • “Member” is any one or more of fac/staff/student/employee • “Member” is the most generic service class (parallels UW-Madison “eligible for ID card”) TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  7. eduPerson 1.0, Jan-2001 • Is there any value in a gross-grained attribute like eduPersonAffiliation? • Large volume licensed resource providers will likely be its biggest fans • This attribute promises a single, standards-based attribute that would reliably identify the licensor’s major intended service class (faculty, staff, student, alum, member) • MACE-Shibboleth will demo @ I2 fall meeting TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  8. eduPerson 1.0, Jan-2001 • eduPerson object class future • Of course eduPersonAffiliation controlled vocabulary will grow • In general eduPerson will evolve by a community process • Please participate by sending comments to eduperson-comments@internet2.edu TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  9. MACE-Dir Priorities • MACE-Dir current priorities • Broader stakeholder involvement in future of eduPerson 1.0+ • Getting groups and roles into (and out of) the directory • Affiliated directories… TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  10. MACE-Dir Priorities • Affiliated directories • Some of us have affiliations with multiple institutions • Imagine a white pages application that showed all those affiliations • Imagine sharing the load by carrying pieces of info in the directory closest to theiir home TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  11. MACE-Dir Priorities • MACE-Dir current priorities • Getting the directory to handle non-person entries (org. units, services, hardware devices) • CIM, Grid, ... • Coordinate with international directory initiatives and projects and outgrow the US-centrism of version 1.0 TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey

  12. Growing the Higher Ed. Directory Community of Interest • Grid needs • International interest in resource sharing • How? • Participation in joint projects • …? TNC 2001, Antalya, Turkey
