            1. Roll Call & Agenda Review.

    Quorum: 7 out of 7 voting members (100%)

    

    Status Changes:  According to Oasis TC Policy, non-quorated meetings
    are counted towards your voting eligibility.

    http://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#meetings

    "Meetings without Quorum shall still count towards attendance for
    purposes of Members gaining, maintaining, or losing voting rights."

    

    

    
      

        
Quorum was achieved with all voting members in attendance.

        

        
          
2. Need a volunteer to take minutes.

          

        
        

        

        
Nate volunteered to take the minutes.

        

        
          
3. Approval of minutes from last meetings:

            

            (i) Minutes from SSTC Call on 14 June 2011:

            http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/201106/msg00015.html

          

        
        

        

        
Scott moved to approve the minutes and Nate seconded.  No
          objections were raised.

        

        
          
(ii) Minutes from SSTC Call on 28 June 2011:

            http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/201106/msg00033.html

            

            (ii) Minutes from SSTC Call on 12 July 2011:

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/201107/msg00013.html

          

        
        

        

        
As quorum was not achieved on these calls, there are no
          minutes to approve.  These notes were, however, adopted by the
          SSTC.

        

        
          
 (c) Session Token Profile (Hal)

                 - Status: CSD02 - PR02

                 - Status: PR started 11 July 2011 and ends Tuesday, 26
            July 2011.

            

            http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/201107/msg00008.html

          

        
        

        

        
The public review closed on the day of the call.  Only one
          comment was received, but he feels he cannot ignore it.  It's
          technically not in scope, but there is a new RFC for HTTP
          cookies.  It looks like a big improvement to him, but a change
          is that the HttpOnly attribute has been standardized.  There
          will probably be another revision that changes all normative
          references from the old RFC to the new RFC and the comment
          about HttpOnly being non-standard will be removed.

        

        

        
After that, another CSD will be created and another 15 day
          review period will be triggered.

        

        
          
  (d) Attribute Predicate Profile (Gregory/Franz-Stefan)

                 - Status: WD01 uploaded May 16. 

                 - AI:  Uploaded WD03.

                 - Any updates?

          

        
        

        

        
No major updates have been made to the attribute predicate
          profile.  WD03 was uploaded a month ago and no comments have
          been received from the SSTC on the calls or on the list.

        

        

        
Franz-Stefan moved to proceed WD03 of the attribute
          predicate profile to CSD01, and he also wants to request a 30
          day public review.  Nate seconded, and there were no
          objections.

 (e) Kerberos profiles: [Josh/Thomas]

                 - Status: CS Ballots created for the 3 Kerberos docs

                 - Status: Will resubmit ballot in August (after
            vacation season).

          

        
        

        

        
Josh and Thomas would like to resubmit these profiles for
          approval after the prior ballots failed to gain enough votes
          to get approval.  New ballots need to be created for each of
          the documents.

        

        

        
Hal moved to ask TC-Admin to do a new CS ballot for all
          three following Kerberos documents.  Scott seconded.

        

        

        
(1) SAML V2.0 Kerberos Web Browser SSO Profile v1.0
          (complete zip):

  (f) Change Notify Protocol Version 1.0 (Thinh/Phil)

                 - Status: Request submitted for 15-day CSD Public
            Review.

                 - Status 15 day CSD PR request still in TC-Admin Queue
            (#534).

            

            http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/TCADMIN-534

          

        
        

        

        
Neither Thinh nor Phil was available for the call.
           However, this request is still sitting in the TC-Admin Queue,
          for reasons that are not clear.  Hal investigated the status
          of -534 and the corresponding CSD request -528 and found no
          progress in two weeks, so Thomas will investigate the current
          status with TC-Admin.

        

        
          
 (g) Channel binding proposal (Scott)

                 - Status: awaiting other items in other groups.

                 - Any updates?

          

        
        

        

        
No updates.

        

        
          
  (h) Enhanced Client or Proxy Profile (Scott)

                 - Status: WD02 uploaded last week.

                 - Status: work waiting for items in IETF Kitten WG.

                 - Any updates?

          

        
        

        

        
No updates.

        

        
          
  (i) Metadata Extensions for Documentation/Registration
            (Chad)

                 - Status: WD07 uploaded June 23rd.

                 - AI: Chad asks SSTC for 

                    (a) vote for WD07 to become CSD02, and

                    (b) public review (15-day PR).

                 - Status: will request TC when TC achieves quorum.

          

        
        

        

        
Chad officially moved to vote for WD07 to become CSD02 and
          to request a public review.  Scott seconded the request, and
          there were no objections.

        

        

        
Chad will verify that a zip file containing all the
          relevant files has been uploaded and he will submit the
          request.

        

        

        
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/42657/sstc-saml-metadata-rpi-v1.0-wd07.zip

        

        
          
  (j) Errata document (Scott):

                 - PE-12.

                 - Any updates?

            

            http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/201106/msg00036.html

          

        
        

        

        
Scott is ready to get PE-12 adopted, following a final
          revision on June 29.  This was in response to feedback from
          the paper authors, and the consensus is that PE-12 is
          basically done.  He wants to move for PE-12 to be added to the
          draft errata document when it is next prepared.  Hal seconded,
          with no objections, and the motion passed.

        

        

        
It's been awhile since an errata has been filed, but Scott
          wants to file another errata soon as regards XML signature
          wrapping attacks on SAML implementations.  He doesn't have a
          great idea about what to put in the documents because the
          flaws are generally implementation flaws rather than
          specification flaws, but there's at least one concrete errata
          that he wants to move on: blocking use of the Object element
          should be recommended.

        

        

        
Scott hopes to prepare this errata within the next call or
          two.  January or February is when these researchers want to go
          fully public, but some implementations were vulnerable and
          already have patches already released.

        

        
          
  (k) Metadata Extensions for Login and Discovery User
            (MDUI) (Scott)

                 - Status: WD07 uploaded 27 June 2011.

                 - Status: WD ready for CSD. Asking for full Public
            Review.

          

        
        

        

        
Two more working drafts correcting small errors have been
          uploaded, with the diff going against WD06.  There is a
          security considerations section now.  The only substantive
          change is responding to a request to allow the space character
          in keywords by escaping it using the + character as a
          substitution.  WD08 fixed a namespace, and WD09 explains that
          the + character is not permissible in keywords because it will
          be treated as an escaped space.

        

        

        
Scott moved to adopt WD09, which he uploaded July 25, as
          CSD01 for Login and Discovery UI, and he also requests a 30
          day public review.  Chad seconded.  Nobody objected and the
          motion passed.

        

        

        
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/42998/sstc-saml-metadata-ui-v1.0-wd09.zip

        

        
          
7. Next SSTC Call: 

              - Tue 09 August 2011

          

        
        

      

      
We look forward to talking to you then.
