New subject: For KI WG/DG Review: Draft Attribute Management DG Charter

4 Aug 2011

      Hello WGs / DGs,

The WGs/DGs copied are being contacted because this draft charter identifies
each group as 'related' to this discussion.  Recently the IAWG has discussed
a desire to explore work around Attribute Management.  The draft DG charter
below was crafted, with IAWG input, to capture that discussion and to define
a scope which focuses on:

- Identification of KI stakeholder requirements
- Discovery of works in progress already (both internal and external to KI)
- Performance of gap analysis (between the KI requirements and the works in
progress)
- Development of recommendation on how Kantara should move forward.
Potentially to:
     - seek to adopt works in progress (external to KI)
     - seek to engage in collaboration on works in progress (external to KI)
     - seek to form a KI WG to develop new Attribute Management work(s)

We have 2 requests at this time:
1. Send comments back at your earliest convenience.  For timing, we'd like
to move this forward next week.
2. Confirm if you would 'sign-on' as a proposer (item 6)

Thank you in advance for your time, comments and endorsement for this draft.
