Other Comments:

The US Federal ICAM provisionally approved the IAF as an adopted Trust Framework Provider at Assurance Levels 1, 2, and non-crypto 3. There is no condition that the ICAM must meet at this time for the provisional status to be removed. Rather, the provisional status will be removed once the ICAM completes their continuing requirements work.

The IAWG will submit the IAF specification set to the LC to request approval of an All Member Ballot to release the IAF as an Official Kantara Recommendation.
