Birds of a Feather: Brainstorming on Future MidPoint Features
A Birds of a Feather session (BoF) is an informal and engaging gathering at a conference to discuss a particular topic. The main speakers are there mostly to introduce the topic and moderate the discussion. The participation of all attendees in the discussion is expected and welcome.
Building the midPoint roadmap is a burdensome task. It requires a careful balance of keeping midPoint state of the art, improving and fine-tuning existing features, extending the range of configuration options, and incorporating other ideas. That is already difficult per se, but to even get to this part it is crucial to understand the requirements for midPoint to be used across sectors in various types of ways. Part of Evolveum’s job is engaging with the worldwide midPoint community and understanding their needs, plans, priorities, and wishes. The MidPoint Community Meetup is an excellent place to do that, not only based on session content, but also during coffee break discussions and other engagements. To support this interaction even more, we are organizing this BoF session to have dedicated time for sharing thoughts and gathering feedback. Join this open discussion and help us understand your requirements and collect valuable input to further form the midPoint roadmap. Any discussion related to midPoint features and capabilities is welcome. For example, we can discuss what is missing, what works well in the current state, where improvements are needed, and what is good enough even though it’s not perfect. Use this opportunity to voice your ideas directly to Evolveum’s team. The discussion is moderated by Slávek Licehammer and Pavol Mederly.
