| Name | Expected Completion | Dependencies | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| IdP V4.2 | 2021 | Java 17 | Ensure support for Java 17 (the upcoming LTS release replacing Java 11) for the current IdP release branch. Other minor improvements as warranted. |
| IdP V5 | 2022 | Java 17, Spring 6 | Migration of the IdP platform and dependencies (including OpenSAML) to Java 17 and Spring Framework 6.x to keep the platform appropriately current. This will remove some deprecated function but is not focused on new features. |
| Second Generation IdP Proxy Support | 2022 | Add sufficient OIDC and possibly CAS support to IdP to handle proxying use cases without additional software footprint. SAML proxying support was added to IdPv4. | |
| OIDC/OAuth Enhancements | 2022 | Additional features for the OIDC OP plugin, initially focused on use cases adjacent to OIDC specs, or adding optional OIDC material. Distinct from work focused on API security and full OAuth functionality, which is captured as "OAuth Authorization Service" below. See JOIDC project in Jira. | |
| SP Packaging Automation | 2021 | AWS-based process for automating SP packaging, at least encompassing RPM platforms. This will conincide with changes to the packages we produce. | |
| SP V4 Redesign | 2023-2024 | Substantial design work | The SP is on an unsustainable path and needs to be replaced with a different software redesign that addresses sustainability challenges – see SP4Details This work has begun with preliminary technical work and early planning and design, likely through 2021, with more comprehensive work starting in 2022. |
| Wiki and Issue Tracker Migration | By 2024 | Atlassian have discontinued Confluence and Jira Server, with full EOL in 2024. This encompasses migration of the current infrastructure to an alternative. | |
| Java Project Deployment Changes | 2021 | The Maven site deploys, which provide the javadocs, are no longer reliable for the larger projects so this needs to be reworked to avoid the use of WebDAV with thousands of small files. In parallel, the problems of unauthorized artifacts showing up in Maven Central require that we revisit and make decisions about supporting it, but no decisions have been made yet. | |
| Browser Integration Testing | 2021 | End to end testing with browsers through the free Sauce Labs service |
