OAuth community,

As some of you are aware, there was an initial plan to have an OAuth 2.0 
Interop event at MIT on 31 Oct - 1 Nov 2013. After further discussion, 
we have decided to postpone this event to early 2014. Instead, we would 
like to begin discussions related to the planning of this event and a 
broader range activities supporting oauth interoperability and deployment.

The objectives of this activity are to:
1. collect oauth use cases (in particular those beyond OIDC and UMA),
2. develop a generic oauth test API for interoperability testing,
3. develop a test suite for use in interoperability testing, and
4. conduct an open oauth interop event.

To this end, we plan to:

1. Establish a mailing list for conversations related to oauth 
interoperability and deployment.
Please join the list and contribute to these activities.
oauth-interop@elists.isoc.org

2. Hold a oauth interop planning meeting in Vancouver in conjunction 
with IETF#88.
This meeting is planned for:
Sunday, 3 November, 2013, 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm PST (exact location TBD)

Further information and documents will be forthcoming. Please join the 
mailing list and contribute to the conversations.

Regards,
Karen O'Donoghue
