Meeting Minutes:

Introductions

Implementer Call: Projects, Groups, and SIG report out on Identity-related topics. Shared Identity paper.

Identity paper: Moving to GitHub. Identify specific changes other than 'this doesn't look good'. Need details. Repo is created. Maintainers needed. If not maintainer, please comment if you have a GitHub user ID. Otherwise, please send comments to maintainers. There are unresolved issues on the paper. We need to make a conscious effort to address areas, particularly, PII on the blockchain (deprecated) and tension between people with current or new solutions which may not be in production yet. One aspect to debate is ideas such as Aadgaar. The tension needs to be addressed in the paper, ie privacy is a basic right. Aadgaar has billions. We have many systems that handle identity. How do we progressively go toward a better system, in the blockchain world and elsewhere? 

Kayila: Need to separate out some concerns. One is it's widely accepted practice for local authorities to issue birth certificates, and that ends up being the basis for other documents states issue to citizens, such as identity cards and passports. India created such an identity system. Aadgaar and Singapore systems see everywhere a person uses that identity. 'Phone home' architectures cause issues; yes there's a role for governments to authenticate things such as births. Does that mean the 'state' should be an identity provider? No, in government or with companies (Google). People should be able to act without authoritative sources knowing. 

Vipin: Lack of large-scale identity providers opens up for Google, Facebook, etc. to step in as a commercial interest. Caused tremendous problems. SSI is the answer because when you present credentials, do not need to notify the issuer of that presentation. 



Ajay and Vipin had a recent conversation on Consent.
