Draft minutes of UMA telecon 2020-12-10

https://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/UMA+telecon+2020-12-10 MinutesRoll call Quorum was reached. Approve minutes - Approve minutes of UMA telecon 2020-12-03 <https://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/UMA+telecon+2020-12-03> Deferred. New Pensions Dashboard profile The profile was originally developed about a year ago and reviewed by a few UMA experts. The Pensions Dashboard Program leaders are studying the implications of the contribution path that's been taken. We are thinking it would be valuable to get the contributions into work streams that reflect the WG's intention to work on them soon, and so the editors are interested to put them into report/specification form as appropriate. A sample report looks like this <https://kantarainitiative.org/download/7568/>. A sample specification looks like this <https://docs.kantarainitiative.org/uma/wg/rec-oauth-uma-grant-2.0.html> (but these would be editors' drafts initially, not recommendations). Style doesn't matter, just presence of metadata and correct headers and footers. The Operating Procedures <https://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/download/attachments/37750179/KI%2…> provide guidelines for publication and branding, and there are logos and templates <https://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/GI/Logos+and+Templates> that can be used. This will help WG members review the material in a familiar form. There may be a few changes forthcoming. Sal noted that "PDP" is an acronym that has multiple definitions, and could be misunderstood! It might not need to appear anywhere in the flows. There are a number of questions and issues embedded in the profile text. Ultimately these could be collected in GitHub. Charter refresh Our charter <https://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/Charter> hasn't been refreshed in nearly two years. Nominally it's not too out of date and might just need a bit of brushing up. We've had ambitions about interoperability and conformance testing that haven't borne fruit, but the charter wording wasn't too specific. The PD work may require some interoperability testing. On the other hand, the work we've been doing on the resource definition, policy manager, etc. profiles seems pretty consequential for ensuring that the "negative trust" between RS and client can hold; it could be considered significant new UMA work. This, along with the PD work, seems significant indeed as a body of work. How much should this be reflected in the charter? Alec and Eve should confer a bit on this and come back with a recommendation. Attendees As of October 26, 2020, quorum <http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/display/uma/Participant+Roster> is 5 of 9. (Michael, Karim, Domenico, Peter, Sal, Thomas, Andi, Alec, Eve) 1.

Draft Profile for UK Pensions Dashboards
by Kenneth May 07 Dec '20

07 Dec '20

All, Eve mentioned that she was expecting a new profile contribution to support the UK Pensions Dashboards Programme. This initiative is one of enormous ambition and has a real social purpose. Origo has created a profile of UMA to support the specific requirements of this use case. This was authored for us by Mike Pegman, who some of you may know. We are pleased to now contribute this profile to the UMA Working Group for consideration. We hope that the group is encouraged about the use of UMA in a project of national importance and international interest that will benefit millions of people. The draft profile we have supplied is a result of many years of collaborative work between Origo, the UK Government's Department for Work Pensions (DWP), the UK's Government Digital Service and others (including some UMA working group members) to develop and demonstrate the architecture. We are proud to have worked with Industry and Government stakeholders in developing a truly world-class solution using UMA. I have attached 4 documents. A short introductory Background document that describes the context. This also explains why we are asking the working group to accept and progress this contribution as a matter of some urgency. A Design Document to accompany the draft UMA profile. This document: * provides the context, rationale and explanations for the non-normative aspects of the Pensions Dashboard profile and the ecosystem digital architecture being proposed; * explains important design decisions; * provides guidance on what we believe is required from UMA vendors/implementers that will facilitate onboarding of pensions providers and in doing so create a market for UMA. The draft Profile Document with three sections: * Section 1 for the Pensions Dashboard UMA Grant draft profile; * Section 2 for the Pensions Dashboard UMA FedAuthz draft profile; * Section 3 for wider security considerations. There are sequence diagrams embedded in the Design Document to illustrate and explain each flow. If you would like to view / edit these separately then this can be done using the links in the attached Sequence Diagrams document. My colleague, Ian Muir, and I will join today's call. We would be happy to explain some of the history and background to the group. We look forward to speaking with you shortly.

MOTION: Moved by Domenico, seconded by Andi: The Working Group recognizes and appreciates the significant contributions made by the outgoing vice-chair, Maciej Machulak, to the development and progress of the UMA specifications. APPROVED by acclamation. Continue Policy Manager / Trust Model discussion and agree on use cases The discussion last week was about how UMA fits into existing trust models. Identos's motivation in developing the draft user stories was that having even more OAuth-like flows could promote adoption. UMA AS's have have trust schemes for all the parties but needs to have knowledge of the resource semantics. That's where the user story elements of "recognized standards", "resource types and scope", and "push RARs" come from. The last user story came out of a discussion with George. Alec has seen some work in GNAP around this, but it's difficult to do. With permission requests, there can be multiple resource IDs and scopes, and you may not know what RS they originally came from. It's a no-no to give a client a token that it can redeem in multiple places. The reason we care about this, since this would have been impossible in "regular UMA", is because we're inventing something new here: The client could request a resource by type, and that means all of the resources that satisfy that type could span resources. Reminder: We are enabling C → AS first. The "community AS" has become a virtual registry of resources on each RO's behalf that can cross RS's. (Shades of Liberty Discovery Service.) It's not just C → AS, it's actually enabling the RqP to do something new at the AS, and that's where we have higher-level user stories: *As RqP Bob, I want to be able to request access to a set of Alice's resources directly from Alice's AS without knowledge of their location, because I don't have to bother getting or caring about all the locations from Alice first.* *As client C used by RqP Bob, want to be able to request access to a set of Alice's resources directly from Alice's AS on Bob's behalf without knowledge of their location, because I don't have to retrieve the locations first.* Maybe there are more low-level/technical stories here to do with request_submitted and different ways of handling it, but we can deal with that later. In our 2020-11-05 call, three "models/degrees of freedom" were defined. The ecosystem gets further and further constrained with each choice. They function as profiling – and compliance – choices. There's 1) a *data model* underlying the API being used by the client (by analogy think of a "media type"); 2) the *authorization protocol* protecting that API, such as OAuth (by analogy think of a "scheme"); and 3) the *trust model* that actually constrains access by that specific client in making API calls using that authorization protocol (back to a CA). There is a persistent desire to get more distributed about that last one. Resource Definitions is one distinct deliverable we want to have. "Trust model" isn't a spec deliverable, but we think we should ponder the concept and see if it generates any (e.g.) security considerations for each new spec we do generate. As an example of walking through every (pair of) entities/parties, the old "binding obligations" spec shows how we did it back in the old days. Next time: Domenico's EU report (and UMA implications), and Alec's user stories docs.
