Release of eduroam(UK) Tech Spec v1.4

Audience - eduroam(UK) system administrators and implementors

The eduroam(UK) Technical Specification 1.4 has now been released and is effective as of 14th July 2016.

The update primarly addresses the removal of the requirement to forward RADIUS accounting messages to the NRPS, the expriy of the permissive grace period for TKIP, TLS proxies disallowed and the removal of LDAP and POP from the list of ports/protocols that must be open to visitors. Other changes are essentially general housekeeping and updates.
