eduGAIN provides a a governance model and body for global collaboration between the national federations; A policy for participating federations and entities; A technical infrastructure which publishes metadata; Tools to view, test and validate participants; Specifications for global interoperability. 
All of this was expressed in a SAML technical profile, but the creation of other profiles is possible. This activity creates the proof-of-concept for the OpenID Federation profile, which, in turn is a great opportunity to re-evaluate some aspects of the eduGAIN model, detailed above.

The following results were created and delivered:

• OpenID Fed set up kit based on T&I Incubator tools
• DRAFT eduGAIN OpenID Federation Technological Profile
• eduGAIN Testbed
  • Edugain Trust Anchor: https://edugain.edugain-poc.incubator.geant.org/
  • Go-based Trust Anchor / Intermediates
  • Go-based RPs
  • Roland Hedberg's python OP
  • SSP and shib OPs first versions
    
  • Different Trust Marks and Trust Mark Issuers
  • Dynamic Trust Mark refreshing
• Tooling
  • OFcli - command line tool for inspecting OID Federation topology, entities, evaluate trust chains and trust marks - https://github.com/dianagudu/ofcli
