I may not be able to make this and certainly not beyond 12:00 EST.  All the work these last two weeks has been on metadata resolver parsers, moving towards the filters.

Input towards the open issues discussion:

• "Move the source attribute ID ..."  Can we postpone until I am present
• "Improve the relational database connector's connection pooling..." Do not feel I can make any input, but am interested in the result.  See also IDP-318
• "The ID attribute will be required for all policies".  I think we should drop this. It creates needless impedance for update. IDP-277 was the work item for this.  We do not require identification but if we do not have one we log (at warn) a generate identifier.  This is then used in all logging.  Reopen IDP-277 if we change our minds.
• "HTTP and File-backed HTTP provider will be merged into one implementation".  Interested in the outcome.
• "The signature validation filter will have options".  Can we postpone until I have looked at the code.  My instinct is that this should be done if easy.
• All other items I have no input to make but am interested in the outcome.
