*Discussion*

The Mellon/NSF workflow event is tentatively scheduled for October 3-5 in DC. [AI] Ken will send Bob, Keith, and Paul the latest draft Mellon/NSF workflow conference proposal.

Keith is documenting ways that Condor might be able to make use of Shibboleth; see http://arch.doit.wisc.edu/keith.

Bob reminded the group that he remains open to suggestions for new MACE members. Bob also noted that at the Internet2 Member Meeting he floated the idea of producing a "MACE program document" that would set out the group's overall perspective and plans, as well as criteria for membership.

The group noted the launch of the Concordia Project (http://projectconcordia.org/), initiated by Liberty Alliance members "to drive interoperability across identity protocols in use today."

On June 25, both Bob and David made new contributions to the outreach and education discussion on the MACE list. [AI] Bob will put outreach and education high on the agenda for the July 9 MACE call; all will review the "Outreach and Education Discussion" thread on the MACE list ahead of that call.
