1. Reschedule next call when Robin will be flying home from Vegas.

SUMMARY: We decided to go with Friday 18th, 08:00 PDT (16:00 BST) in order to obtain full feedback from Robin on activities in Las Vegas. See dial in details at the end.

2. Collaboration site URL (Randy van der Hoof)

SUMMARY: Randy tabled his presentation until the next call: Brett recommends we coordinate use of any collaboration site with Joni Brennan (staff@KantaraInitive.org).

3. Quorum problem

SUMMARY: Guidance to make sure Robin understands with 42 signed up members, we need 21 people to have a quorum to take a position on anything during the call. We can always hold an electronic ballot in order to obtain the participation necessary to pass something.

4. GSA ICAM feedback letter (Brett McDowell/Susan Landau) ( RW note)

Process

- Brett summarized process options in his email of this morning (a recommendation will take several weeks for all-member ballot)

- - Recommendation process: Work group approves draft recommendation; 45 days required for comment on draft recommendation. Then, LC reviews document to ensure it is within charter. Then, all-member Ballot requires 7 days.

- - Report process: Report requires only work group approval, but cannot use Kantara logo

- - - DISCUSSION: Susan recommends report now and concurrent pursuit of draft recommendation for later submission with two ballot items: 1) report vs. recommendation and 2) if we decide to move forward rapidly with a report, pursue recommendation, as well

Document Content

- Brett Noted that his comments on the document itself reflect his personal views, based on his experience as liaison to ICAM

- ICAM includes only LoA 1-3 (without PKI)

- Susan & Rich: Don’t think that we should suggest this scope limitation in and of itself could lead to sub-optimization by excluding LoA 3 (with PKI) and LoA 4. It will dilute our message with content this is not actionable by ICAM.

- Susan comfortable with Brett’s changes

- Rich will submit some corrections to Susan to address Brett’s comments.

- Susan will issue post one more version of the document and then we will submit it for ballot among P3wg members

- - Send ballot text to Staff@KantaraInitiative.org

Socialization of Document

- Rich Furr favors sharing it with IA and soliciting their comments

- Rich also recommends sharing it with Health Information and Consumer Identity

- Brett: Founders foresaw possibility that different groups might have different opinions. Should other groups disagree with our position in the ICAM response, that does not preclude us from submitting it as a Report.

- Group seems to favor sharing, but concerned about delay.

- we could send it out and welcome other groups to sign on as a group if they support our position, rather than continuing to massage the text and further delay our response.

- (Of course, people could join our group in order to vote (subject to signing the P3wg IPR))

5. Comparison of US/UK LoA (Patrick Curry)

Tabled to next call because Patrick was unavailable

6. Broadening P3-wg participation

Participants (with Robin gone, no action was reported on engaging the following): Judy Spencer, Dave Temoshok, EU ENISA, UK Information Commissioner's Office (RW task?), other suitable EU candidates (e.g. from PrimeLife or other projects), Paul Hasson (CPO - US Visit) (RW task)

Brett recommends inviting the following people from ICAM meeting and offered to invite them on our behalf: Deborah Diener, US Internal Revenue Service; Dawn Wiggins, US Social Security Administration; Naomi Lefkovitz, US Federal Trade Commission; Jim Lewis

Susan recommended Brett invite the following (she will send Brett their contact info): Lee Tien, ESS; Ari Schwartz

7. Funding ideas

SmartCard Alliance meeting

- Rich: Quickly reach out for funding for refreshment; we should get free room

- Randy no longer on call to report on status of getting room and other support from SmartCard Alliance

8. Vice-chair & secretary nominations

Jeff: I have submitted my name for vice-chair

Rich: Did emails go out soliciting nominations? If not, they should be sent out call attendance is small.

- Send an email out as a “call for leadership” to engage addressees.

9. Other (We ran out of time to cover anything else)

Actions

Rich: Send updated ICAM letter text to Susan

Susan: Post finalized draft ICAM letter for review and ballot support

Jeff: 1) Initiate ballot process for decision on treatment of ICAM letter and 2) Distribute letter to other groups in PDF format seeking their sign-on without changes and inviting comments (to keep us from making a major faux pas)
