I guess the absence of any activity on this list means that the Information Card Foundation has ceased to exist?

Anyway, the project is alive and well although it nowadays has few similarities with the original take on this subject.
There is a virtual explosion of new identity concepts led by Google and Mozilla.

The dramatically shortened browser update cycles makes it possible experimenting in a way which wasn't possible when the Information Card project started.

Anders,

We are in the process of folding the Information Card Foundation into
Identity Commons. There is a new working group at Identity Commons Called
Claims-Agent that is continuing the conversation.

Would love to hear more about what you are doing.

That is good to hear.

I'm continuing my provisioning project which after 3 years of
intensive research has entered an implementation phase.

Although they don't know it, I'm pretty sure that this project will
serve as the client foundation for NSTIC :-) The current approaches
are either of the "Real ID" type or introduces concepts that the
market do not [yet] see the value of such as U-Prove. The Universal
ID-Client allows the world to mix and match.
