Discuss how to tackle remaining work and ideal meeting schedule for achieving it

  • Interop: feature tests, interop testing activities...
  • Technical: core spec editing, open issues, dyn client reg, new profiles...
  • Binding obligations: binding obligations spec editing, modularity with trust frameworks...
  • Educational: use case documentation, webinars, tweet chats...
  • Administrative: Kantara requirements, spec contributions...

There was general agreement with this approach. People should keep this hour on their calendars, self-identify about the topic areas they have interest in, make every effort to attend meetings (or halves of meetings) that focus on their topic areas, and endeavor to complete action items timely. We'll have a single monthly meeting that's intended to be "quorate" so we can check group consensus on progress and vote on anything, as necessary. Meeting plan through September:

  • Aug 23: Focus meeting on interop (feature tests)
  • Aug 30: Cancel meeting due to summer travel
  • Sep 6: (Eve regrets) Focus meeting on interop (feature tests and interop testing plan) and technical (threat model doc and any urgent issues)
  • Sep 13: Focus meeting on education (use cases, webinar plans)
  • Sep 20: Focus meeting on legal (binding obligations doc review) -- needs "legal all-stars" to attend
  • Sep 27: WG all-hands meeting

Eve will get this info on the calendar and in the wiki as appropriate, and will send out a call for interest in topic areas.

News from the Cloud Identity Summit

George reports: Nishant discussed how the model of users being able to pick their IdP is not being employed very heavily. The "identity as the new perimeter" trend for enterprises makes UMA especially relevant, and enterprises are going to need to apply access controls to a lot of foreign identities.
