I agree,

Your use case for cloud based agents moving to client based agents for u-prove tokens seems reasonably scoped.

We need to discuss if JWT (RSA signed) are in or out, SAML 2.0 tokens, etc

If this includes Discovery/WYF on the RP end, UMA provisioning for oAuth, personal data store support etc.

How this interacts with the next version of openID.

To a certain extent you are the one paying the piper, so understanding what you are will ing to fund and support is important.

I think there is a desire to have a broad scope for the WG to be able to cover multiple projects.

I am happy to have a call in the new year.

When the browser is unmodified, you can only get certain guarantees with respect to untracability, unlinkability, and minimal disclosure. When you have a client down load which runs on the user's device, more options are available for protecting the user's privacy.

Having a call in the new year sounds like a very good idea.  January 10th is generally good, with the exception of the OSIS call at 12:00 PT, 3:00 ET) 

 

Does the 10th work for other interested folks?

I'm not sure we are on a common page with respect to the scope of this work.  In particular I would like to focus on some specific scenarios so that, as a community, we would more likely create a complete solution to those scenarios; after applying the lessons from that work we could later expand to additional scenarios. 

There are a number of specific opportunities we see in North America and Europe that this group could focus on.  One of them is the work described inhttp://blogs.msdn.com/b/bright_side_of_government/archive/2010/12/09/state-issued-online-identities.aspx
