&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </H2>
<P>Kantara&nbsp; Initiative had a very successful inaugural meeting co-located at the DIDW in&nbsp; Las Vegas. The Board of Trustees (BoT),&nbsp; Leadership Council (LC) and many Work Groups (WGs) discussed deliverables and scope&nbsp; of work moving forward. You can review&nbsp; the current formed groups and minutes from these <A href="http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/dashboard.action" mce_href="../../../../../../../../../dashboard.action">groups</A> below&nbsp; for updates from the meeting.</P>
<P>In addition,&nbsp; the recent formation of an Oversight Board to look at expanding the Interop&nbsp; program is underway. The third Liberty Interoperable&nbsp; full-matrix web-based testing event administered by the Drummond Group Inc.,&nbsp; and the first event to test products against the new eGovernment SAML 2.0&nbsp; profile v1.5 recently released by Liberty Alliance took place allowed vendors&nbsp; to participate from anywhere in the world. The summers full-matrix testing&nbsp; event included more vendors than ever before, reflecting the worldwide demand&nbsp; among enterprises and governments for SAML 2.0 identity-enabled solutions that&nbsp; have proven to interoperate. Organizations&nbsp; can count on Liberty Interoperable for products that have proven to meet&nbsp; interoperability requirements today and over the long-term as the program moves&nbsp; to expand within Kantara Initiative to test against additional identity&nbsp; standards and protocols.</P>
<P>Please stay&nbsp; tuned for location and dates for our next Kantara Initiative meeting estimated&nbsp; March/April 2010. We are looking for sponsors for upcoming&nbsp; meetings for Kantara Initiative. There&nbsp; are two "RFPs" that describe our requirements - one RFP is for a&nbsp; smaller venue for the Board of Trustees and Leadership Council.&nbsp; The&nbsp; second is for a larger meeting that would accommodate the BoT, LC as well as&nbsp; several work groups. Please contact dervla\[at\]kantarainitiative\[dot\]org with&nbsp; questions. </P>

The third Liberty Interoperable  full-matrix web-based testing event administered by the Drummond Group Inc.,  and the first event to test products against the new eGovernment SAML 2.0  profile v1.5 recently released by Liberty Alliance took place allowed vendors  to participate from anywhere in the world. The summers full-matrix testing  event included more vendors than ever before, reflecting the worldwide demand  among enterprises and governments for SAML 2.0 identity-enabled solutions that  have proven to interoperate. Organizations  can count on Liberty Interoperable for products that have proven to meet  interoperability requirements today and over the long-term as the program moves  to expand within Kantara Initiative to test against additional identity  standards and protocols.</p>
<p>Please stay  tuned for location and dates for our next Kantara Initiative meeting estimated  March/April 2010. We are looking for sponsors for upcoming  meetings for Kantara Initiative. There  are two &quot;RFPs&quot; that describe our requirements - one RFP is&nbsp;for a  smaller&nbsp;venue for the Board of Trustees and Leadership Council.&nbsp; The  second is for a larger meeting that would accommodate the BoT, LC as well as  several work groups. Please contact dervla[at]kantarainitiative[dot]org with  questions. </p>

                           <p>This year's program featured enhanced SAML 2.0  testing scenarios between Service Provider (SP) and Identity Provider (IdP). The eGovernment SAML 2.0 profile and its  requisite test plan have been developed by Liberty Alliance with input from the  Danish, New Zealand and US governments. Testing  processes for the eGovernment profile included multiple SP logout scenarios,  requested authentication context comparisons, and other aspects of SAML 2.0  necessary to meet interoperability, privacy, security and transparency  requirements in the global eGovernment sector.
