<p>Phase 1 of <a
href="https://docs.evolveum.com/midpoint/midprivacy/">midPrivacy
project</a> is almost complete now. Even though it is ongoing
for only half of a year, we managed to discover a lot about
metadata processing. Some of it we have implemented into the
midPoint code, but we have also realized the problem is more
complex than we have thought at the beginning. For example, we
have identified the <a
href="https://docs.evolveum.com/midpoint/midprivacy/phases/01-data-provenance-prototype/metadata-multiplicity-problem/">Metadata
Multiplicity Problem</a>.</p>
<p>With all this in mind, we have organized a public workshop to
share our results and gather feedback. The workshop contained a
presentation about provenance metadata, live demo of metadata
processing in midPoint and presentation about the midPrivacy
initiative. The workshop was partially interactive thanks to polls
launched during the demo and also thanks to the discussion at the
end of it.</p>
<p>There was about 20 people attending. Polls and the discussions
revealed that the metadata management is usable, but it will need
additional effort to use it in its full potential.</p>
<p><a

presentation</a> from the workshop is available on the <a
href="https://docs.evolveum.com/talks/">Evolveum talks</a> page.
<a
href="https://docs.evolveum.com/media/2020-09-10-data-provenance-workshop.mp4">Recording
of the workshop</a> is public too. Presented demo will be
released as a docker image when midPoint 4.2 will be finalized.</p>
<p>We would like to thank everyone for the participation in the
workshop and encourage you to share related thoughts on the
midPoint mailing list.</p>
