Tom Jones --Update on several things over last two weeks. Meeting on self-sov identity and Dig ID Found. and OpenID. We (KI) might want to follow this. TJ describes an architecture for federation; CS notes that her co. has deployed a similar solution. TJ says it seems a bit different: he relies on EHR systems to do ID proofing. " https://wiki.idesg.org/wiki/index.php/Phone_as_Health_Care_Credential  While i am not sure it is clear, but the phone is not the identifier, it holds the binding between the subject and the ID. Tom also notes he is neutral on how authN is done. He is trying to take proposal to KI LC via Sal D'A.
