Regrets

Agenda / Proceedings

  1. Welcome / Agenda Bashing

  2. CAT

    • work in the admin interface and admin API (include diagnostics)
    • NRO interface extended to show : profiles with Prod-Ready && No anonymous outer ID && password-based EAP types

2a. Anon Outer IDs

  • turns out MANY IdPs do not set Anon Outer IDs
  • institutions already get a WARNING level notification during creation if this case is configured
  • changing this is less a technical issue, but a mindset / storytelling one to get through to admins and make them realise that the extra work brings a tangible benefit
  • small technical bit: logging in many implementations could be improved to correlate outer ID EAP conv and inner ID
  • CAT could default to checking the box (either global or per-NRO) to make it a conscious decision by an admin to turn it off
  1. geteduroam

    • hibernation fix for Android in beta
    • issues with logos that are too big. Discussed options to reduce the logo size
  2. IETF

  • draft-dekok-radext-review-radius is in WG acceptance call. Comment if you want to see it adopted
  • There is a substantial discussion in the TLS / etc. working groups around certificates, and validating certificates.
    • The CA/B people are making decisions without talking to people. They think everything is fine. Pretty much no one else agrees.
  1. WFA / WBA
  • Latest draft for the new RadSec standard contributed to the WFA in hope that it will part of the new WPA3 Feature Release update.
  • WBA is working on RADIUS Conformance suite. AI is cool, right?
    • Working on refining requirements, without requirements you can’t really vibe code something new that implements things.
  1. AOB
  • Question re: registering hotspot locations in eduroam maps - latitude/longitude vs. street addresses (Derek)
  • Are we done talking about AirSnitch?
    • Do we have a ‘statement’?
    • We have a response to give if someone asks questions; but didn’t happen so far.
  1. Next call 21 Apr 2026 1530 CEST
