Open Stack

Ziad,

  thanks for the summary. I'm sorry, but I can't find details about a couple
topics (I might be looking at the wrong place - I looked at the links you
provided and the dev guide). To make sure we end up with a consistent view,
it might be useful to elucidate on:

a) the semantics of rolRefs, and how exactly they affect authn/authz
requests
b) the semantics of endpointTemplates - in the etherpad, it seems that
they're per-tenant (?). Can tenants share an endpoint? Can there be some
sort of token substitution in the template?
c) We've had some discussion on the list about federation scenarios - where
different tenants can have a different backend authentication system. While
this does not need to be in the public API (since it could be provider
specific), it would be nice to include the expected semantics as to how this
affects authn/authz requests

thx,
a.
