Discussion

Call for IAWG Charter Review

Brought forward from last meeting for discussion at the request of the Chair

(ref. Email to IAWG Chairs and WG)

Link to current IAWG Charter (July 2009)

Kantara Portland retreat in August 2013 created plans to sharpen focus for Kantara WGs. Review and update of existing WG charters was requested, due September 25 for review by LC.

The text of the request:

During the recent Kantara Leadership Retreat, we focused on the question of why Kantara exists (seehttp://kantarainitiative.org/pipermail/lc/2013-August/002348.html for a high level summary out of that retreat). The idea is that with a clear "why", we can make sure the actions we take truly support the goals of the Kantara Initiative. The current working DRAFT of Kantara's "why" statement is: DRAFT: Kantara exists to define rules of engagement for operators of online services, enabling high-value, privacy-preserving identity and access. In order to incorporate this concept in to the Innovation side of Kantara, the work groups, we are initiating a Work Group recharter effort. This will help make sure that the Work Groups are on track with solid deliverables and timelines that support the goal of the organization. Work Groups can expect to receive more organizational support in terms of marketing to increase group participation and the creation of industry-driving Kantara Recommendations. For Work Groups that do not recharter, their status will change to that of a Discussion Group, which is considered a much more informal effort. (Please see the Kantara Operating Procedures for a more detailed definition of Work Group and Discussion Group: http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/x/owVAAg .) The link to your current charter can be found on your space in the Kantara wiki. The LC would like to have the updated charters in by September 25. The LC will discuss and review the charters over the month of October.
Discussion

  • Need to assemble a subgroup to look at the charter

    • Volunteers: Rich Furr; Linda Goettler; Andrew Hughes; Scott Shorter

  • Deeper discussion deferred to subgroup

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.
