In the spirit of openness and with our new principles of operation in mind, I wanted to create a space for us to showcase our services: principally the Login Gateway (built on Shibboleth), Group Management (built on Grouper) and the Institutional Data Feed Service (IDFS).

As well as extolling the benefits, we will try to leave useful tips and guidance for users of the services and share interesting stories and ideas. Readers’ contributions would be welcomed, too.
