Subject: IMI 1.0 Committee Specification package and submission forconsideration as an OASIS Standard


Mary,

 

Yesterday the TC membership unanimously approved the ballot to approve Committee Draft 03 as a Identity Metasystem Interoperability.

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/imi/ballot.php?id=1689

 

This is Committee Specification 01, the specification and schema are in Kavi and the document repository.

Spec:

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/imi/download.php/32539/identity-1.0-spec-cs-01.doc (editable source)

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/imi/download.php/32540/identity-1.0-spec-cs-01.pdf

Schema (no changes from CD03)

http://docs.oasis-open.org/imi/identity/v1.0/cd/addr-identity-1.0-cd-03.xsd

http://docs.oasis-open.org/imi/identity/v1.0/cd/claims-1.0-cd-03.xsd

http://docs.oasis-open.org/imi/identity/v1.0/cd/identity-1.0-cd-03.xsd

http://docs.oasis-open.org/imi/identity/v1.0/cd/identity2007-1.0-cd-03.xsd

 

Attached is a zip file with the appropriate RDDL and directory contact for the IMI TC document repository area.

 

The TC membership also unanimously approved the ballot to submit the above Committee Specification to the Membership of OASIS for consideration as an OASIS Standard.

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/imi/ballot.php?id=1690

 

The TC has certified that schema and XML instances included in the specification are well formed.

In summary, the Identity Metasystem Interoperability Version 1.0 specification is intended for developers and architects who wish to design identity systems and applications that interoperate using the Identity Metasystem Interoperability specification.

 

An Identity Selector and the associated identity system components allow users to manage their Digital Identities from different Identity Providers, and employ them in various contexts to access online services.  In this specification, identities are represented to users as “Information Cards”.  Information Cards can be used both at applications hosted on Web sites accessed through Web browsers and rich client applications directly employing Web services.

 

This specification also provides a related mechanism to describe security-verifiable identity for endpoints by leveraging extensibility of the WS-Addressing specification.  This is achieved via XML elements for identity provided as part of WS-Addressing Endpoint References.  This mechanism enables messaging systems to support multiple trust models across networks that include processing nodes such as endpoint managers, firewalls, and gateways in a transport-neutral manner.

 

This specification does not replace or supersede other work. This specification is related to these specification:

·         OASIS Standard WS-Trust 1.3 and 1.4

·         OASIS Standard WS-SecurityPolicy 1.2 and 1.3

·         W3C Recommendation WS-Addressing 1.0

 

We have five statements of use for the specification. They are available here:

·         CA: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00007.html

·         Cordance: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00005.html

·         IBM: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00003.html

·         Microsoft: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200904/msg00049.html

·         Novell: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00018.html

 

The Identity Metasystem Interoperability Version 1.0 specification was in Public Review from 26 February 2009 through 27 April 2009.

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200902/msg00030.html

 

The TC resolved today that none of the edits since the Public Review constituted substantive changes. The TC recorded those decisions as we resolved each issue. All issue resolutions from the Public Review are in our JIRA issue list:

http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/IMI

 

The ballot to approve the Identity Metasystem Interoperability Version 1.0 specification as a Committee Specification was held from 7 May 2009 through 14 May 2009. TC membership unanimously approved this ballot.

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/imi/ballot.php?id=1689

 

There have been no earlier attempts to standardize a substantially same version of the Identity Metasystem Interoperability specification.

 

The public comment archives for the IMI TC area here:

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi-comment/

 

There were no minority reports from any members of the TC who did not vote in favor of approving the Identity Metasystem Interoperability as a Committee Specification. The TC voted unanimously to approve the Committee Specification.

 

Please let me know if there is anything else you need in order to prepare this submission to the OASIS Membership for consideration as an OASIS Standard in June.

 

Regards,

Marc Goodner
