The amount and frequency of sharing of information about, by, and from individuals is outpacing our ability to manage it. Our role is to shepherd new specifications by which personal information can be enabled to flow under the control of the individual, improving the relationship between demand and supply. Our contention is that when individuals are forced to "consent" to confusing organization-centric privacy policies and terms of use, the flow of quality information is limited. If such constraints were removed, and capabilities built on the side of the individual, then new, rich information will flow - including actual demand data (as opposed to derived/ predicted demand). The goal of this working group is to identify and document the use cases and scenarios that illustrate the various sub-sets of individual-driven information sharing, the benefits therein, and specify the policy and technology enablers that should be put in place to enable this information to flow. Our role is to shepherd new specifications by which personal information can be enabled to flow under the control of the individual, improving the relationship between demand and supply. 

(3) SCOPE: Explain the scope and definition of the planned work.

The founding Work Group participants recognize that deployers developers are working in an ever-evolving heterogeneous environment that requires interoperability of identity services (i.e. identity- and SOA-enabled applications), both internal and external to the enterprise. In order to advance the identity-enabled marketplace - specifically application domains that rely upon identity-based web services - information sharing - this Work Group is chartered to:

  • Become an active public discussion forum for the collection, development, and analysis of use cases/ , scenarios that are met by the emerging concept of individual-driven information sharing.Develop a detailed public roadmap that provides recommended next actions to make the concept of , and specifications that address individual-driven information sharing a reality within 12 months.
  • Foster awareness of and participation in this effort from the broadest stakeholder cross-section possible, both the near-term use case phase taking place in this working group, the mid-term specification and practical framework build phase, and the long-term adoption of the newly emerged individual-driven information sharing.

(4) DRAFT TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: List Working Titles of draft Technical Specifications to be produced (if any), projected completion dates, and the Standards Setting Organization(s) to which they will be submitted upon approval by the Membership.

  • Personal data store - an illustrative technical specification (in that we feel it is impossible to be definitive in this area)
  • Technical specifications for individual-driven information sharing mechanism(s)
  • Definition of Service Interface Specs (SIS) for each identified type of individual-driven information sharing (e.g. Buying Intentions)The Standard Label – a clear, simple presentation of the essential details about what happens with information shared online: what data, who gets it, for what purpose, etc.
  • Open Notice – An interoperable mechanism for specifying the applicable notices, disclosures, terms, and policies for a given context, e.g., a website

It is the intention of the Information Sharing WG to ultimately submit the specifications listed above to an appropriate OASIS TC standards development organization for full life-cycle maintenance. The receiving organizations will be determined on a per-specification basis.

(5) OTHER DRAFT RECOMMENDATIONS: Other Draft Recommendations and projected completion dates for submission for All Member Ballot.

Editorial change to update deprecated IPR option "Liberty" to "Patent and Copyright (RAND)".  "Liberty" and "Patent and Copyright (RAND)" are the same IPR policy, however the Board of Trustees determined that "Liberty" as an IPR option title had no meaning.  The decision was made to update the option name to "Patent and Copyright (RAND)" as it was a more logical title.2013
