Subject: WSS Minutes 21 March 06 - v2


WSS TC bi-weekly call Minutes
taken by Frederick Hirsch
v2 - added attendance.

Date:  Tuesday, 21 March 2006
Time:  07:00am - 09:00am PT
We are grateful to IBM for sponsoring this call

Attendance list at end.

Agenda:
1. Call to order/roll call

Quorum achieved. (22 of 32 present)

(Note: Dr Kefeng Chen, Geotrust entered twice in roster due to  
signing membership agreement, so OASIS needs to update this Kavi record)

2. Reading/Approving minutes of last meeting 21st February(2006) [1]

Minutes approved without objection.

3. SAML 2 Interop status

Prateek reported that Endpoint has been established, working on next  
steps with members of TC planning to participate.

Prateek will forward information to the list.
(Done - See <http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wss/email/ 
archives/200603/msg00021.html> )

4. Issues list (if any issues)

TC thanks Mike Rudolf for updating issues list. No open issues  
currently on list.

Tony has new issue, related to closed issue item, errata item.

In non-normative section is a mistaken URI which needs correction.

AI - Tony to post red-line version of errata indicating fix for non- 
normative typo.

If no objections raised on the list regarding the fix, will start  
ballot to approve 3 days after posting on list.

5. Remaining business for 2006 (continuing prior discussion)

Errata, SAML 2 interop ( already discussed on this call).

OTP profile discussion:
Updated converged specification was posted about two weeks ago, no  
comments on list apart from comments from Tony on list.

Concern raised by Tony regarding all contributions associated with  
the document, and ability to identify all authors and their  
willingness to license IPR.

(see <http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wss/email/archives/ 
200603/msg00014.html>,
<http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wss/email/archives/ 
200603/msg00017.html> )

John Linn indicated that meeting OASIS policy was confirmed by  
submitters in last fall, worked with major contributors (authors) to  
achieve submission.

Tony asks about technical contributions by various parties, concerned  
about potential IPR issues.

John Linn - can always have IPR issues from any party.

Tony - concerned that we cannot identify everyone that has  
contributed to document.

John Linn - have sought to identify and contact parties that have  
contributed to document, doing what OASIS policy required.

Chris - In the past the TC has had an approach where anyone who has  
contributed to a submission document has agreed to make the material  
royalty free.

Abbie points out that under the legacy IPR policy, that this is not  
required.

<http://www.oasis-open.org/who/ipr/intellectual_property_2000-1-13.php>

Paul Cotton states that he is looking for something from contributors  
of OTP work similar to this statement from the original submissions  
to WSS :
<http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/wss/documents/ipr_statement.shtml>
(June 26, signed by original authors of WSS contribution, IBM,  
Microsoft, Verisign)

Issue is that all authors properly identified and willing to  
contribute under RF policy.

John Linn - RSA and Verisign are the submitters.

Abbie - Need to understand IPR implications of submission before  
voting on it.

Recommendation that OTP submitters look at submission statement whose  
URL Paul Cotton provided and consider providing additional  
clarification.

John agrees to speak with Phillip Hallam-Baker  (co-editor) and to  
determine how to respond to concerns.

Paul Cotton: Hal had technical questions on key derivation in the list

AI Create OTP - issue for Hal technical comments
See <http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/wss/200601/msg00012.html>

AI Create OTP - issue Tony sent email which needs to be captured in  
issues list, reference to SecureID, registered trademark
See <http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wss/email/archives/ 
200603/msg00018.html>

Need to double check that trademark use is allowed in document (not  
allowed in name need to double check)
(Note Frederick has raised with OASIS board Process/IPR committees).

wss-1.1-OTPTokenProfile-draft-01.pdf>

Paul Cotton : Line 172-174, 175-177 where is SecureID-AES algorithm  
defined?

John Linn, possible to remove line 172-177

Concern about legal issues associated SecureID-AES

Paul Cotton - URIs in section 2.3 describe time based algorithms,  
need to understand technology references and what patent statement  
covers.
Are they described in non-referenced material? Can we understand IPR  
status?

John - no intent that any algorithm is required to implement this  
specification

Irving Reed - This is about naming, some OTP algorithms are  
proprietary, still want to be able to name them.

Hal - not useful for interop if you cannot find out details of  
algorithm, need to have published reference

Irving Reed  - can use if you own/license algorithm, so still useful

Hal - reasonable to allow any identifier to be used, but spec should  
only list those that can be used. No need for proprietary identifier  
to be standardized.

Chris - concern about references to encumbered algorithms/identifiers.

John agrees to look at original WSS IPR statement noted above.  
Question of when a response can be expected, to determine whether we  
should have next call.

Will discuss on list as needed.  Decide at end of next week determine  
whether enough material to have the next WSS call.

Will keep call on calendar since we may also have other business -  
errata, FAQ etc.

Paul notes that WSS conflicts with WS-SX F2F meeting. Maybe schedule  
WSS for 1 hour.

Minimal Profile - need a bit more time to research, will report back  
on next call.

6. Other business

Discussion of Hal FAQ posting.
<http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wss/email/archives/ 
200603/msg00019.html>

FAQ based on OASIS FAQ template. Asks TC to review and then we can  
make changes and adopt for web site.

Plan to vote on it so it reflects TC opinion.

Paul Cotton - comment, would like references to technologies that are  
referenced in FAQ (e.g. TLS etc), also visible links for those that  
print document.

Question regarding REL - need reference to standard.

Action for TC to review.

7. Adjournment
