Virtual Identity Authority File
by Salvatore D'Agostino 13 Apr '12

13 Apr '12

Hope all is well in Munich, So some of the semantic web activity has gone into service. http://www.oclc.org/viaf/default.htm As many of you probably know this is a service that becomes an authority for an identity attribute of interest for us, namely names, perhaps not exactly DN, OU, etc. but names none the less and in this case with "sub-attribute" "author". I will post to repository. Also a reminder to please review the DRAFT <http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/AMDG/Report+-+DRAFT> and comment. Prost!

Significant cleanup of DG-AM report and some questions
by Heather Flanagan 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Hi all - I've been updating the draft Report based on the emails and telecons over the last few weeks. One particular area of concern at this point is the Recommendations section. I have highlighted which gaps the individual recommendations covered as best I understood them, and noted that Gap #7 "Interoperability between protocols" has no associated recommendation. So, the homework assignment for this group to be done by our next call is: 1 - review the Recommendations and provide input as to whether I matched the appropriate Gap(s) to the individual recommendations 2 - offer feedback on the rest of the doc, the changes in language and attempts at clarifying the overall structure Thanks! http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/AMDG/Report+-+DRAFT -Heather

definition of Identity Attribute for the report
by Dagg, Kenneth 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

I checked for the term Identity Attribute in the IAF Glossary and did not find it. As such, I did not send a note to the IAWG. However, the following terms are in the glossary: * Attribute - a property associated with an individual * Identity - a unique name for a single person. Because a person's legal name is not necessarily unique, identity must include enough additional information (for example, an address or some unique identifier such as an employee or account number) to make a unique name. * Identification - Process of using claimed or observed attributes of an individual to infer who the individual is. * Identity Proofing - The process by which identity related information is validated so as to identify a person with a degree of uniqueness and certitude sufficient for the purposes for which that identity is to be used. The AMDG report currently defines Identity Attribute as Information bound to a subject identity that specifies a characteristic of the subject. I suggest that this definition is not in alignment with the definitions contained in the IAF glossary. While I have nothing against the definitions contained in ITU-T X.1252 I would suggest that we remain consistent and aligned with KI definitions. I believe the following would be more aligned, "Identity Attribute is information that contributes to establishing the identity (a unique name) of a single person?" Comments? Or reasons not to use this definition (other than it's not the ITU definition)? BTW: I have updated the report. I added a glossary and some text about RP requirements. I also took the opportunity to align the recommendations at the start of the report with the recommendations at the end.
