Which begs the question Who gave OpenAthens permission to assert
alaska.edu for anything they publish? This web site I found
https://docs.openathens.net/display/public/OAAccess/Federation+metadata
mentions the metadata URL http://fed.openathens.net/oafed/metadata and
that metadata does not contain any MDRPI extension information. So
there's no reference to the applicable registration policies and
practices, where I'd expect to find statements detailing the
legal/contractual basis that ultimately allows for the creation of
such metadata.

So yeah, I'd fully expect people to freak out if something like that
ever happend here.
