I realize this is specific to biometrics, so I don't know if anyone on this list would be interested in it. It's happening next week. The NIEM Open folks have been trying to get Kantara to take a leadership role and establish an identity domain, but I don't have the bandwidth on the staff at this time. Just sharing in case any of you would be interested in this. Thanks.
