AGENDA

1. Brief update on grant proposal

2. Review of 5.1 work TBD

   1. Target perhaps 2/19 or 2/26 for a release…

3. Thymeleaf discussion

   1. Co-existence seems plausible, though doing as a plugin probably isn’t

   2. More control over view resolvers is a need

   3. Pending ability to verify keys, 5.1 is a possibility, if not it will have to wait for 5.2

   4. CSP seems difficult if not impractical but could be done via meta tags as a fallback

   5. In parallel, Marvin will consider work on redoing the default UI with more modern CSS tools, we can slip this in at any point that we’re happy with the work. TBD if that would be Thymeleaf only.

   6. If and when we have templates available, adding additional modules to install one set of templates or the other may be the best way to have them co-exist

4. (PS) Some TIIME updates if there is…time.

  • Cleanups

  • Very basic configuration documentation in progress.

Rod

• Not able to attend but may lurk for the first part.

• Mostly time spent looking at the non web part of Thymeleaf. I've shared my findings with Scott

• Started looking at the EDS patches from CNRS - accepted 2 of 3, expect to accept the third

• Next up is probably building a jetty installer for 10.0.18.with the new process

  • I'll document it

  • And get someone to test

  • Then do the same for 10.0.20

Scott

• Production javadoc release work, updated Java Product Release Process

  • https://git.shibboleth.net/view/?p=java-parent-project.git;a=blob;f=resources/maven/build-and-deploy-javadoc.sh;h=6cf7acae811be68704e72c1e1f8d9c8860f1c73e;hb=7fa7190187735f5d26c9d48466fac3cd06e4dbe5

• Prototyping Duo Passwordless in my real system

• Grant proposal last week

• Thymeleaf review

• More 5.1 backlog and new miscellany

Tom

• making progress

• probably should not use Jenkins pipelines for matrix jobs - we loose the UI table

• expiring-password nit : maybe the default config should include p:useUnfilteredAttributes="true" since it’s unlikely someone would be releasing their password expiration date as an attribute
