  10. Departmental Service Provider Strategy • Create a Web SSO service roadmap • Legacy vs Shibboleth vs Windows Authentication • Create local deploy, migrate guides • Extract knowledge from local Shib team • Set install bar: system admins should be able to install/activate SP in under 1.75 hours • Offer Install Fest(s) thru UW Computer Training • For Customer Support staff • For SP “frequent flyers” • For interested admins… seed a community. • And trust that Attribute Delivery is the carrot
