<br>
recently, I was informed by our library team about the project "RA21 -<br>
Resource Access for the 21st Century" (<a href="https://ra21.org" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ra21.org</a>), which was<br>
formed by an association of well-known publishers (e.g. Elsevier,<br>
SpringerNature, Wiley) in order to get rid of IP-based authentication.<br>
<br>
On the one hand, it seems that they just "[seek] to get wider adoption<br>
of Shibboleth for /all/ users", see<br>
<a href="https://discuss.folio.org/t/ra21-projects-impact-on-user-management/454" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://discuss.folio.org/t/<wbr>ra21-projects-impact-on-user-<wbr>management/454</a><br>
<br>
On the other hand, there may be a problem with privacy, as the login<br>
process is centralized by providing their own cloud-wide (custom?) WAYF<br>
service: "why don't publishers ask each other instead of all asking the<br>
user", see page 35ff. of<br>
<a href="https://ra21.org/index.php/ra21-events/ra21workshop-april2017-final-2/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ra21.org/index.php/<wbr>ra21-events/ra21workshop-<wbr>april2017-final-2/</a><br>
<br>
Does anybody have an idea in which direction RA21 goes?<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
