IAWG Update
  • During discussions on overhauling the IAF Overview, the IAWG decided to combine the IAF Overview (IAF1000) and the IAF Glossary (IAF1100) into a single document. The new document will also be the IAF Overview but will have a new number IAF1050 to reflect that it is a combination.
  • On behalf of Kantara Initiative, IAWG submitted comments to DIACC on their Pan-Canadian Trust Framework (PCTF) Model Overview Discussion Draft V0.02.
UMA WG Update
  • The Work Group has contributed the UMA 2.0 specifications to the IETF OAuth Working Group as Internet-Drafts, and is advocating that they be adopted as work items. Eve and Maciej (chair and vice-chair) will be presenting on the specs at the upcoming IETF 104 meeting in Prague in a couple of weeks.
  • The Work Group has re-elected Tim Reiniger as our Legal Editor, and thanks Tim for his service! We have put our UMA business model work aside for the moment as we put our efforts into the IETF project.
  • Interoperability is becoming a topic of greater interest, and we have been offered a short session at the Identiverse conference in June to present on interop testing results. We will be working out what to present over the next few months.
  • Identos has the latest implementation appearing on our Implementations page.
