We'd like to extend many thanks to our hosts Orange-FT who made the Kantara Initiative meeting in Paris last week a really good one. We had a successful meeting with a good turnout and extremely productive sessions. The OpenID Summit session provided updates on various working groups and a review of significant OpenID deployments. Thanks to John Bradley and Nat Sakimura for organizing this event. Thanks also to Kim Cameron from Microsoft who presented at Kantara's opening session discussing next generation technology, identity metasystems, and more. The following groups met in Paris (noting some groups' minutes are still in progress): Board of Trustees, eGovernment, Federation Interoperability, Leadership Council, TelCo Identity, ULX, UMA. You can find the opening and closing session slides posted here: http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/GI/Event+Presentations+and+M... If you have any questions, let me know.
