Updates: 

  • Contribution to industry call for comments: Ken suggested to prioritize the development of comments in order to avoid delaying some core tasks of IAWG in relation to the SACs and IAF. The priorities would be classified in : 1. Kantara Members. 2 Liaison org. to Kantara 3. Potential Market opportunity, to also be considered by Colin and Ruth in terms of business. Therefore, the French call for comments would not be considered this time. For instance, KI has contributed with comments to UK gov for many years, but haven't been productive in terms of opportunities for KI. 
  • December Director's Corner 
  • Directors At large - Wedacon, EasyDynamics, 2Keys, Airside will be joining the Board soon, once the AMB closes successfully. 
  • UMA - Interest from UK Department of Work and Pensions to create a profile of UMA, Pension Dashboard Program.
  • Benefits for Members:  Each existing Individual or Organization level member in good standing that introduces a prospective Organization level member that subsequently pays its member dues before the introducing member's next renewal anniversary, gets 25% of the new member's membership level rebated off the introducing member's membership renewal to a maximum of 100% of the introducing member's membership level.
  • New Approved CSP: Exostar. This is the first approval in light of SAFE Identity-KI agreement.

Proposed CO_SAC revisions

  • Possible approaches to the ARB comment regarding some inapplicability of CO_SAC #0090 criteria for component/partial service cases, as they do not have access/contact with the Subject:  a. Include in the guidance column "if it's a component/partial service these "x" criteria do not apply"; 2.  Reword those criteria and make them meaningful for partial/component service 3. Replace RPs, Subscribers and Subjects with "Service Consumers". 
  • Action item: IAWG to consider which next steps to take. 


Annual Charter Review 

  • It was suggested to make some edits on the Scope section (3):
  • First bullet under Section 3:  add "and foster" after to determine, replace "comparability" with "interoperability".
  • Third bullet under Section 3: add "other" after engage; add "groups" after Kantara.
