The IESG has received a request from the System for Cross-domain Identity Management WG (scim) to consider the following document: - 'System for Cross-Domain Identity Management: Core Schema' <draft-ietf-scim-core-schema-17.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2015-04-20. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The System for Cross-Domain Identity Management (SCIM) specifications are designed to make identity management in cloud based applications and services easier. The specification suite builds upon experience with existing schemas and deployments, placing specific emphasis on simplicity of development and integration, while applying existing authentication, authorization, and privacy models. Its intent is to reduce the cost and complexity of user management operations by providing a common user schema and extension model, as well as binding documents to provide patterns for exchanging this schema using HTTP protocol. This document provides a platform neutral schema and extension model for representing users and groups and other resource types in JSON format. This schema is intended for exchange and use with cloud service providers. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-scim-core-schema/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-scim-core-schema/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
