Name of the BOF


I dont see a preliminary discussion list on this BOF. That's IMHO is customary.

I'm wondering what is the relationship of this proposed work to SAML or the work of Liberty Alliance.

http://www.projectliberty.org/

I was frankly astounded that there is nothing in the Charter Draft or associated documents that mentions the huge body of work already existent on Federated Identity Management.

Could someone summarize the problem statement this proposed WG attempts to solve, more specifically what is lacking in existing Federated Identity Management efforts that the IETF may have some relative expertise in solving?


Digital Identity Exchange (DIX)

Area:

Applications

Chairs:

Lisa Dusseault <lisa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
John Merrells <merrells@xxxxxxxx>

Sponsoring Area Directors:

Scott Hollenbeck <shollenbeck@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Ted Hardie <hardie@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

BOF Description

Objectives

1. To consider the creation of a new IETF working group within the Applications Area titled "Digital Identity Exchange". The proposed charter for such a working group is referenced below.

2. To discuss and hone the scope of a DIX working group.

3. To discuss the architectural requirements that derive from the laws of identity identified by ‘The Identity Gang’ at ‘The Berkman Center for Internet & Society, Harvard Law School’. Referenced below.

4. To discuss existing architectural implementations within the context of these requirements. An individual submission Internet Draft that describes one such implementation is referenced below, named ‘draft-merrells-dix-00.txt’

5. To determine if there is enough interest and commitment to form a Working Group and if so to then discuss what the specific goals and milestones of that working group would be.
