Enterprise Identity Architects Charter

Name
Enterprise Identity Architects

Purpose
Provide a forum in which enterprise identity architects can collaborate to address enterprise identity management issues and learn from each other. It is not a forum in which vendors can pitch their products or services.

Principles
Membership is open to all enterprise identity architects and related functions. Vendors are considered guests who participate at the pleasure of the members.

The group intends to be:
 * vendor-neutral
 * technology neutral

Practices
The group operates a mailing list and space on the wiki, supported by conference calls and in-person meetings from time to time.

Requirements of Participation and How to Join
See principles.

Licenses and/or Restrictions on Usage of Work Product
No intellectual property statement is being made at this time. Participants are strongly encouraged, however, to only convey information that is freely distributable, otherwise the purpose of learning from each other cannot be met.
