Discussion Items
We had a brief discussion about potential use cases of block chains and smart contracts in e-Government (public registers being one area), and the perspective of a technology designed to be fully distributed and lacking central control by design, versus government processes that are backed by hierarchical organizations enforcing the rules.
Colin is still working on code of conduct, a task carried over from the time before he became Kantara’s exec director.
The Fed Interop SAML profile is kept on the agenda for regular reporting, although there is nothing to report this time.

Colin and David reported from CIS, and David from a relaunch of NemID, which has federation of Bank and Government IDPs and eIDAS-compliance on the road map.
Colin reported that Kantara is actively searching an alternative location to establish Kantara Europe, since the UK became less advantageous recently.Â
Colin's Comment on the last statement:Â
I do want to clarify that last sentence which has attempted to summarize down several minutes of conversation.
