Students across Wales are experiencing problems logging in to their library resources because of a problem with Shibboleth. What's your diagnosis fractionMan, or were you to blame? :p
 
you are a 'Chartered IT Profressional

you sort it out
He's not just a 'Chartered IT Professional '

He's also a self trumpeted "leading public figure in the socio-legal, info-scientific and economic solutions to issues affecting techno-cultural communities, both organic and virtual. A pioneer in educational technology and online community development."

And he's an incredibly modest and not even slightly self deluded "leading public figure in the socio-legal, info-scientific and economic solutions to issues affecting techno-cultural communities, both organic and virtual. A pioneer in educational technology and online community development" too.
 
It might be my colleague's fault, actually. Got a link to the story, Jonathan?

I can't find anything on Shibboleth's website, but I and a few other researchers have had problems accessing journals etc. I thought the self-proclaimed identity management expert fractionMan would be closer to the ground and know what's gone on.

I would have thought a self proclaimed 'Internet Expert' (lol) like you would have all the answers and wouldn't have to stoop as low as starting snarky threads here. Oh well.

You never did answer post up that link where you had supposedly been recognised as a Top 10 UK Innovator by the New Statesman".

Could you post it up now please?

he sounds spiffing
 
I don't think its online any longer, however these accolades are:
So you can't actually back that claim up, which may lead some to think you may have made it up...

Here's your own words:

it were not for lecturers such as Ray Kingdon and Nigel Stanton pointing Jonathan in the right direction he may have never honed his programming skills to the extent that he could constantly evolve with the changing times to produce new Internet applications and go on to be recognised as a Top 10 UK Innovator by the NewStatesman.

Those other article links are absolutely irrelevant, btw.

he's good at irrelevent links. I caugtht him out with one in his last thread

The only things I can still find online are these links:
http://www.newstatesman.com/nma/nma2004/nma2004shortlist.htm - look under Innovation/PARLE
http://www.newstatesman.com/pdf/nma2004supp.pdf - search for Councillor Jonathan Bishop

Those other article links are absolutely irrelevant, btw.

They go to the credibility of your claim that I am not an expert in online communities, when those in the field know I am. The well respected Jenny Preece cites my work. IBM and Parc researchers cite my work. My work has been quoted in graduate dissertations in many languages.
As a Chartered IT Professional I could lose that status if I claim to be an expert in something I'm not. I don't claim to be an expert in identity management as fractionMan claims to be, but I do claim to be in online communities and e-learning, and I think you should accept that, as those in the know do.

without context, knowing you have been quoted is irrelevant. for all we know, you're being quoted as how not to do it.
 
I'm concerned about what happens to the reputations of other people who happen to be called Jonathan Bishop, though. They might end up appearing to be rude and ignorant through no fault of their own. Could Urban be liable? :eek:
 
Well, thanks to this forum I am now more prominent in Google's search rankings, so I'm not complaining! ;)
Yes, and anyone clicking on that link will find that just about every person who's interacted with you on this forum - which is infinitely bigger and more successful than anything you've ever created - thinks you're a prick, and quite possibly a liar.

Nice work, internet expert!
