  1. Simple vs Complex?
    1. Simple to start
    2. But may need subgroups, compound groups
      1. Sakai needs hierarchies of authorization and navigation based on group membership structure (eg: combining personnel data with academic structures)
      2. Latest Grouper APIs may be able to address some of the Sakai complexity
  2. What type of identifiers does a group API need have as a reference?
    1. Opaque ID
    2. Username/NetID etc
  3. If calling group API against multiple backends, how much should the API hide/handle that for you?
    1. Unclear, but API handling it implies client-side libraries beyond (eg) just simple REST calls
  4. Biweekly calls starting 1/11 @ 4pm?
