MINUTES
1) We reviewed the queries and concerns raised by email by Richard Baker (20th July), noted and agreed the following:
- When we are looking at these transactions and actors we need to consider not just a proposed new way of performing the transaction but also the impact of the change and the ability of new and old systems to co-exist and how to convince stake holders to make the change.
- We need to ensure our use cases are technology neutral in order to enable viability of proposed standards.
- We need to ensure that we are aware of the need for interoperability of technologies deploying the proposed standards (i.e. all parties are not required to adopt a single technology
- We need to be very aware of the needs of the consumer (individual) user in designing rhese standards, and ensure that their needs are met with the minimum changes to the existing information systems in use.
- We need to be aware of and consider (limit) the capital and operational expenditures required of an organisation wishing to engage with User-Driven and Volunteered Personal Information.
- We should be aware of the identity assurance requirements of varios processes in the customer/ supplier interaction and transaction set, and ensure that the ability to deliver on identity assurance requirements is part of the UDVPI specification.
- We should be aware of/ ensure that management of liability is covered within the UDVPI specifications and/ or surrounding policy work.
2) We discussed the need to build out/ improve the documentation around the Getting a New Car use case/ scenario. Iain agreed to review other options/ formats used elsewhere in Kantara (see below) and Joe Andrieu agreed to re-visit/ present options deployed before in the VRM personal address manager scenario.
NB (added since the call) - The description below of a range of documentation modes was posted in another group (UMA), and I thought that it might be a useful input to our own thinking. Iain
- Scenarios are high-level, ideally real-world, and express the needs of the actors without reference to technology (unless interoperability with something is a hard requirement/constraint).
- Use cases add a precise accounting of the actors and the overall interaction goal. They might have pre-conditions and post-conditions.
- Issues capture a technical problem we're going to need to decide.
- Requirements (which we don't actually have any of, yet) capture a unique technical need we've agreed to solve.
3) Iain updated the group regarding the proposed consumer research project. It is hoped that the scoping funds for this will be approved w/c 27th August.
AOB
Iain flagged that as the first Working Group to be approved, we got up and running without some formalities which since emerged; most notably around election of group representatives. All members of the group will get an e-mail w/c/ 24th August that allows us to catch up and run an election process.
In terms of nominations so far, I am happy to go forward as Chair, and Joe Andrieu has offered to go forward as Vice Chair. Ideally we also want to have a Group Secretary. If any of the group are interested in running for the elected posts then please follow the instructions in the email (from Joni Brennan) when it goes out.
