Discussion
WG Updates
BoT Liason Report
- the Kantara IAF have carried through their all-member ballot and we are still working on our press release to announce this; have a responsibility to inform our CSPs first
Discussion
By-Laws discussion
Subscriber vs Member
- Have had extensive discussion on this, and there are clear benefits to subscribers that we did not have before
- The BoT have already amended the By-Laws, so it is is really the Operating Procedures that need to be aligned with this; the LC needs to move towards an all-member ballot to change the OP
- The action is to start an e-vote for the LC to affirm an all-member ballot to ratify a changed OP
Subcommittees and Liaisons
- The By-Law change has been made to allow for Liaisons and Subcommittees, so no action for the LC
WG Updates
HIAWG
- putting together an article regarding identity and different health care initiatives for the IEEE magazine; federation does not work in fee-for-service because it dis-incents cooperation - changing that with the Affordable Health Care Act instead encourages cooperation and federated identity models
- next meeting is tomorrow
- many WG members attended HIMSS
UMA
- UMA group has a working protocol, and so there is a little more to do but some of our activities have moved more towards educational and overt marketing; started to get demos from people who have implemented UMA for different use cases; UMA also engaging more directly with OAuth and OpenID to make sure UMA is a good player in the ecosystem
- this week having a call with the Cloud Identity group
- so, more work than time for case studies, working with people who have NSTIC grants and more
AIM WG
- Heather took the notes and facilitated the call; a great deal of activity, right now largely around the ecosystem diagram that Ken Klingenstein is working on
- will probably start getting that gelling in to something concrete in the next meeting; the next phase will start moving in to discussion around the question of the brokering of the attributes and what it means in the context of the ecosystem
- is there any cross-polination between AIM and the OIX attribute group? probably but not sure
- Myisha is leading the "how to certify an attribute exchange" and Kim Little might also be a good connection; Dave Cox might also be a good person to have on AIM to help cross-polinate
FIWG
- going through elections now, and the ballots are out
- the group is still fairly quiet, but are expecting the Géant stuff coming in; anticipating a ramp up over the next month or so
- Particularly with Rainer representing the Austrian states, the requirements are being directly given to Géant for the SAML test suite
eGov
- had a couple of false start calls this year in trying to run the call and have a webex at the same time; do need webex because we want to do a number of presentations around common interest items across several working groups (topics including: consent, pseudonymity and associated principles, etc.); there is a cross-over of interest between eGov requirements on consent and binding and what's going on within the IAWG and P3WG; it is particularly challenging to coordinate across so many groups, but it needs to be done
- also in progress of handling elections
BoT Liason Report
- Had a meeting at RSA, and had some participation from IEEE this time
- Elections happened, and Allan Foster was elected as President of the Board
- There was a discussion re: the number of trustees versus the number of seats we have, though no decisions were made
- It was decided to sign the OpenStand agreement, the budget was passed, and 2013 planning was roadmapped
- There was a discussion that the Kantara WG need to be more cognizant of the IPR associated with the work coming out of the WG; many WG leaders have been elected and they may not have a clear understanding of the reports and other things required at a WG level
- Discussion of membership and cash management
- Discussion about different ways of raising the visibility of Kantara and getting out in to the public eye; focusing on press releases; part of that discussion was around the website and how we present ourselves - the website is too challenging to navigate
- For the marketing piece, there is a specific proposal put to the European Identity Conference and to the Cloud Security Summit to have Kantara visibility there; also following up with IEEE to see how they can help broaden the message of this particular IEEE program; IEEE was very positive about how they might be able to help increase Kantara visibility
- we have one article due at the end of this week re: the HIAWG to be part of the IEEE e-magazine on the importance of standards, particularly in Health
