Hi Colin, my understanding is that the IEEE made a proactive request to Customer Commons to take the lead on this work. 

There does seem to be a degree of overlap with User Submitted Terms, but that has not made a lot of progress of late. My take on that is that the UST work is now better thought of as Information Sharing Agreements rather than specific terms; in many ways they amount to the same thing, with the latter now being the more common term of art. That in itself is interesting in that Information Sharing Agreements was actually the first work product in what was them ISWG; we pushed on that door for 3 years or so but ran out of steam as the tech did not exist at the time. 

One suggestion, discussed by John W, Andrew and I at IIW was to re-badge the User Submitted Terms strand as Information Sharing Agreements. John and I are both happy to lead on that work as it is most relevant to JLINC.

One for discussion.

Cheers 

Iain

Thanks for this Eve

Of course IEEE-SA was on Kantara's Board until mid 2016 until I believe it was put under pressure from its twin organization IEEE-ISTO, following Kantara's transitioning to another service management company. Until that time, we had a positive and active relationship IIRC.

Perhaps this is an opportunity to rekindle that, tho' I'm still trying to work out Customer Commons' position in this, since it leads the UST project in Kantara.

Interesting times indeed!..

In any event I have completed the contact form and await to see if anything comes of it, and I would encourage individuals, and corporate members of IEEE-SA to do likewise.

Thanks again Eve

Kind regards

Colin

Hi WGs-- This past week at IIW a session was held (I wasn't able to attend the session itself) about an IEEE project to develop "machine readable personal privacy terms":

https://standards.ieee.org/develop/project/7012.html

"The purpose of the standard is to provide individuals with means to proffer their own terms respecting personal privacy, in ways that can be read, acknowledged and agreed to by machines operated by others in the networked world. In a more formal sense, the purpose of the standard is to enable individuals to operate as first parties in agreements with others--mostly companies--operating as second parties. Note that the purpose of this standard is not to address privacy policies, since these are one-sided and need no agreement. (Terms require agreement; privacy policies do not.)"

This seems to have potential relevance for Consent Receipts, User Submitted Terms, UMA, and UMA Legal.

Joyce Searls was the one announcing the session during agenda creation, so I managed to speak with her prior to the scheduled session, and she shared this link with me afterwards. She also said "Take a look at the write up and click through to register interest. We will be having our first formal meeting within a month or so."
