Discussion
Charter Refresh
The current working version of the Value statement is:
"Kantara exists to develop and/or operate rules for operators of online services, enabling verification of the trust layer providing high-value, privacy-preserving identity and access."
From the August 29 2013 call:
Chair called for topics needing coverage in the Charter:
- Need to include roles and responsibilities division between ARB and IAWG and LC for the IAF processes
- Where does execution of processes for certification of credential providers live?
- Joni planning a "Leadership deck" to help chairs to understand processes and their execution
- Many of these processes are already defined in the Kantara Operating Procedures
- Need to reflect the firming up of the distinction between Kantara's Service Operations versus Kantara's Innovation divisions
- IAWG should be confirmed as the Subject Matter Expert pool that the ARB can draw on
- ARB is the operational arm of the IAF
- ARB is not refreshing their charter at this time
- Stronger language needed in charter to keep IAF documents up to date
- Difficult to keep document set current due to the nature of the documents. Focus in necessarily on the SAC.
- Need to focus on low barriers to adoption and consumability by entities wishing to seek Approval - should not have to rely on experts to do basic interpretation of documents
- Further discussion needed to examine current IAF document set structure, areas needing refresh and perhaps extraction of non-core information.
Discussion 5 September 2013:
These bullets are instructions to the draft charter editor - they will be reflected in the working copy at 2013 IAWG Charter Refresh - Fall 2013 - markup working draft
- Align the draft charter text with the text in the glossary
- The 'communication' bullet is for the purposes of evolving the IAF; include an outreach and communication part
- "Understanding the requirements of the marketplace and informing and influencing the marketplace"
- Determine equivalence of other TF schemes to the IAF; validate profiles that accommodate the other TF schemes;
- Include 'sector and trade association' in the list
- Discussion of 'value added' by the existence of IAWG
- the IAWG adds value by keeping the IAF current and responsive to the marketplace requirements - ensures that the certifications are usable and meaningful for inter-party transaction
- Need text describing the fact of multiple TF Schemes - the value add is the IAF - it brings together different TF schemes and multiple certifications
- It is really the current "value statement" but in the IAWG terms and context
- Need to state why we are unique, embedded, hard to copy
- Myisha to tackle this statement
- "The methods by which participants trust each other"
- Scope
- in terms of roles and responsibilities in Kantara
- support Kantara to foster adoption
- subject area coverage
- action and presence in the marketplace - do we exert our presence 'out there' - speaking on behalf of
- marketplace interaction - inbound requirements vs outbound
- services offered?
- maybe: subject matter experts as it relates to the IAF - to other WGs - this might be roles and responsibilities
- Support to KI business development in understanding IAF
- analysis of equivalency
- verification/validation of profiles
- Customers
- The LC and the Board (includes sub-committees)
- Board
- IAWG represents the board to other TFPs (the other TFPs are not our customer)
- Liaison
