<a name="1">MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT</a>
</h2>
<p>Since our formal launch in June of this year, we are extremely happy with the progress in just a few months. We have 15+ active discussion and working groups already formed, with a diverse number of members. Kantara gets new participants on a daily basis! In addition to this we are seeing growth and progress in 5 specific areas: Interoperability, Assurance, Privacy, Liability and Usability. </p>
<p>We had a successful inaugral face-to-face meeting in September where we co-located with DIDW. Our second event takes place March 9-11, 2010 and is kindly hosted by Intel Corporation at their facility in Hillsboro, near Portland, Oregon (details below). Many thanks to you all for your support this year; we look forward to further growth and activity in the new year. <p>

NEWLY FORMED GROUPS
</h2>
<p>Three new groups: the Telecommunications Identity Work Group (TI WG), Identity & Access Services (IAS WG) and the Mind The Gap Discussion Groups (MTG DG) were launched recently.<strong> </strong><br><br>
<a href="http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/telcoid/Home">WG - Telecommunications Identity</a><br>
<p>The ultimate goal of the Telecommunications Identity (TelcoID) Work Group is to help reconcile fragmented efforts in the telco specifications development area and in the telco market place regarding identity management. In order to achieve that, it will act as a forum to facilitate the dialog between Kantara Initiative and the telco industry sector. Additionally, it will produce telco-specific technical material on top of Kantara Initiative specifications as necessary to ensure proper implementation of suitable Kantara Initiative technologies in a telco infrastructure.</p><br>
<a href="http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/ias/Home">WG - Identity & Access Services</a><br>
<p>Organizations recognize the need for the unambiguous expression of identity. Identity can represent a physical individual, a collection of individuals, a logical entity, a resource or a capability. Identity is a fundamental element for establishing and maintaining business relationships, and for describing the credentials, capabilities, and responsibilities of parties to a relationship. The principal business problem that drove the formation of the original Identity Services Working Group (under the auspices of Burton Group) is the difficulties companies face when integrating vendor Identity management (IdM) products with their existing infrastructure and, increasingly, in integrating vendor products themselves. As vendors continue to add to their IdM suites, integration between products is a challenge of increasing concern to organizations.</p><br>
