Dear Ari, I am not sure what you mean by "focus beyond SAML2.0" - it may give a wrong (in my opinion) that entire KI has been solely focusing on SAML. In fact, the "Liberty Interoperable" conformance testing programs have been offered not only for SAML but also for ID-WSF. http://www.projectliberty.org/liberty/liberty_interoperable/implementations/ Regards, Kenji ARI KERMAIER wrote:
The Kantara Initiative is expanding its focus beyond SAML 2.0 and is working to cultivate and manage new certification programs covering a broad spectrum of developing identity and access protocols. Some of the emerging standards currenlty under consideration for testing are:
· WS–Trust
· WS–Security
· OpenID
· InfoCard
· Oauth
· XRD
To support the development of the new test procedures needed for this program, the Kantara Initiative is announcing the formation of the Kantara Initiative* Interoperability Work Group (IOPWG) - *chartered to support the Kantara Initiative Interoperability Program through the development of Test Procedures to be used by the Interoperability Review Board, regardless of protocol. The IOPWG will work closely with the Interoperability Review Board (IRB), the Kantara Initiative sub-committee responsible for member oversight of the Interoperability Program. **
In addition, the IOPWG will be available to provide expertise and technical support to the IRB during the course of any of the Kantara Initiative Interoperability events, and will assist in resolving questions of protocol interpretation that may arise among test participants.
If you'd like to get involved in the Kantara Initiative Interoperability Program to recommend test procedures for such emerging standards as WS–Trust, WS–Security. OpenID, InfoCard, Oauth and XRD, the IOPWG is the group for you!
For more information on the Interoperability Workgroup, please visit the IOPWG home page at http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/iopwg to see:
