Mark K. suggested that we might want to make sure others developing national ID frameworks were at least aware of the new document, but said he had no other comments on the document.
Roger Quint asked said that it would be very useful implementers of ID systems (CSPs and RPs) to be able to compare the characteristics of different frameworks and the extent to which they were interoperable or compatible. He wondered if Kantara had any plans to provide guidance like this, and also whether Kantara was doing anything to promote interoperability or compatibility between frameworks, including its own IAF.
Mark K. said some frameworks being developed simply made no mention of interoperation with other frameworks or how users other than their own nationals would be able to interact with services using their framework. He said Kantara had submitted comments to that effect.
Martin agreed that a "side-by-side" comparison of multiple frameworks would be very useful and likely itself promote some convergence of the frameworks. He added, however, that the effort to create and maintain such an artifact would require a substantial effort, beyond the resources of a volunteer WG. Financial sponsorship would be required. Another member said he believed that Colin Wallis may have in fact sought to find a sponsor. Martin said that in submitting comments on various framework. Kantara has also consistently
- Mark K – may want to make other aware, No other proposal for comments.
- RQ: are we going to be compatible. MK: many are simply missing international issue. K has commented along those lines.
- JJ: Joni's thing? IS DIACC going to KI type service . RQ: Value of framework to end-users - would enhance sevice to side-by -side. WOuld bneed paying sponsor for KI to do that.
