<div>=== Name ===<br />
<br />
Identity and Legal Communities Cross Pollination Group<br />
<br />
=== Purpose ===<br />
<br />
The Purpose of the ID-Legal Working Group is to engage in interactive (shallower) and in-depth consideration of potential future events and scenarios with respect to consciousness-raising of the tech community to the implications of technology in the legal arena.<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Principles ===<br />
<br />
Creating a safe space for mutual learning between the legal community and technologists working on the identity and relationship layer of the web. <br />
<br />
<br />
=== Practices ===<br />
<br />
We will use an IC hosted Mailing list and the IC wiki. <br />
<br />
If we hold an event we will use the IC bank account and 3rd party registration software. We will contribute 15% of revenue back to IC. <br />
<br />
We will collaborate with other working groups to synchronize our efforts. Two we see particular synergy are [[ID Futures]] and [[ID Media Review]].<br />

= Meetings =<br />
<br />
(For general guidelines on how the Stewards Council and the community collaborate see [[How We Collaborate]].)<br />
<br />
We have a mandate to collaborate transparently and openly. This means that mandated gatherings should be over online tools, so that physical travel is not a requirement to participate. This also means that "business" discussions should occur over open, public mailing lists, so that everyone can listen in and participate, and that people should be given sufficient notice to participate in important discussions and votes.<br />
<br />
Stewards Council will meet via teleconference once a quarter. All Stewards will be strongly encouraged to participate on those calls.<br />
<br />
* [[Stewards Council Telecons]]<br />
<br />
= Process =<br />
<br />
The Stewards Council shall appoint a chair, who will facilitate meetings and coordinate discussions.<br />
<br />
This is the process for becoming working group with a steward:<br />
<br />
* A working group forms<br />
* Publishes a charter describing their purpose, process, and deliverables, <br />
* This includes a declaration of adoption by the working group of the Purpose and Principles of Identity Commons,and <br />
* selects one representative to be a member of the general assembly and one alternate to act for the member when the member can not attend a meeting of the general assembly. <br />
* The candidate member delivers to the Stewards Council a statement adopted by the group, <br />
* that the group adheres to the Purpose and Principles of Identity Commons, <br />
* that the group has selected the candidate member as their representative, <br />
* naming the selected alternate and <br />
* including the text of the working group agreement.<br />
<br />
(See [[Working Group Agreement]].)<br />
<br />
If there is no objection by another member, the member is admitted and thereby the working group becomes an adherent to the Identity Commons. If there is an objection, the Stewards Council, following its decision making process as prescribed in the statutes, decides on the admission of the candidate member.<br />
<br />
== Voting ==<br />
<br />
All StewardsCouncil votes will occur on the community mailing list. Once a call for votes is posted, stewards have 72 hours to vote. A simple majority of the Stewards Council is required for a vote to pass.</div>=fenhttp://wiki.idcommons.org/index.php?title=2007_Q4_Report_Identity_Rights&diff=9532007 Q4 Report Identity Rights2008-01-31T06:00:57Z<p>=fen: /* Requests */</p>

[[2007 Q4 Report Identity Rights]]<br />
<br />
== Identity Rights Matrix ==<br />
Each spot in the matrix would have an icon pointing to a document that describes the sharing capabilities in detail, perhaps even including special cases for certain types of data (such as credit card numbers, etc.).<br />
<br />
This document could be ''anything'' from XML to a Word doc (or better, an OpenOffice .odt document) as both sides simply digitally sign and date a (SHA1) hash of this document as part of their agreement to its terms.<br />
<br />
Since these documents are stable (occasionally versioned as the Creative Commons licenses are, but old versions archived and accessible) from the signed hash one can later prove what document was agreed to.<br />
<br />
While this proof may provide legal leverage, reputation metrics will be the key. Reputation servers will collect proofs that a service provider (RP) signed an IRA and didn't abide by its requirements, and good user agents will look up and display these reputation metrics to a person when being confronted with requests for information. So sites will have a strong incentive to behave well and earn the equivalent of a ''Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval''.<br />
<br />
Two proposed matrices, sans icons, follow:<br />
<br />
=== First try ===<br />
<br />
Seven icons are needed with this matrix, which is still seriously "under construction":<br />
<br />
{|| class="wikitable" style="text-align:left; border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" <br />

|-<br />
! width="25%" border="1" style="background:#d6dee9; color:black" | May Cache until <br /> Deletion Requested || || ||<br />
|-<br />
|}<br />
<br />
The horizontal axis defines who has access; the vertical access defines for how long<br />
<br />
There are perhaps two other axes or "mixins":<br />
* '''display''' which covers whether or not the data may be made public by displaying it<br />
* '''refresh''' which defines how often the data must be refreshed in order to continue caching it<br />
<br />
=== Matrix with Refresh ===<br />
The following is another attempt, this one including the '''refresh''' mixin but still lacking the '''display''' mixin:<br />
<br />
{|| class="wikitable" style="text-align:left; border="1" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" <br />
|-style="background:#d6dee9; color:black"<br />
! width="25%" border="1" style="background:#000080" |<br />

! width="25%" border="1" | Accessible by <br /> Federated Communities<br />
! width="25%" border="1" | Accessible by Public<br />
|-<br />
! width="25%" border="1" style="background:#d6dee9; color:black" | Use Once <br /> and Delete || ||<br />

! style="background:#0000FF" | ''n/a''<br />
|-<br />
! width="25%" border="1" style="background:#d6dee9; color:black" | May Cache and <br /> Must Refresh until <br /> Deletion Requested || ||<br />
! style="background:#0000FF" | ''n/a''<br />
|-<br />
! width="25%" border="1" style="background:#d6dee9; color:black" | May Store Locally <br /> until <br /> Deletion Requested || ||<br />
! style="background:#0000FF" | ''n/a''<br />
|-<br />
|}<br />
<br />
Once the data is "accessible by the public" then is seems most data sharing contracts would not really make sense anymore. So perhaps the final column is unnecessary.<br />
<br />
If the cache period "or refresh rate" is set to some number of minutes or zero, meaning no cache required, then the last two rows could be collapsed.<br />
<br />
Alternatively, perhaps all the rows could be collapsed by encoding more information into the cache period ("refresh") mixin, something like:<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
cache < 0 : use once and delete<br />
cache == 0 : cache for session<br />
cache > 0 : cache for that number of minutes and then refresh<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
While not perfect, this might be just the thing that will allow '''display''' to appear as the vertical axis. More attempts soon...</div>=fenhttp://wiki.idcommons.org/index.php?title=Identity_Rights_Agreements&diff=918Identity Rights Agreements2008-01-29T18:31:08Z<p>=fen: /* Matrix with Refresh */</p>

<br />
Each icon points to a document that describes the sharing capabilities in detail, perhaps even including special cases for certain types of data (such as credit card numbers, etc.).<br />
<br />
This document could be ''anything'' from XML to a Word doc (or better, an OpenOffice .odt document) as both sides simply digitally sign and date a (SHA1) hash of this document as part of their agreement to its terms.<br />
<br />
Since these documents are stable (occasionally versioned as the Creative Commons licenses are, but old versions archived and accessible) from the signed hash one can later prove what document was agreed to.<br />
<br />
While this proof may provide legal leverage, reputation metrics will be the key. Reputation servers will collect proofs that a service provider (RP) signed an IRA and didn't abide by its requirements, and good user agents will look up and display these reputation metrics to a person when being confronted with requests for information. So sites will have a strong incentive to behave well and earn the equivalent of a ''Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval''.</div>=fenhttp://wiki.idcommons.org/index.php?title=User-Centric_Usability&diff=749User-Centric Usability2008-01-23T19:51:32Z<p>=fen: </p>

<div>== About Working Groups ==<br />
<br />
Working groups are the fundamental organizational unit of Identity Commons -- see [[Organizational Structure]].<br />
<br />
* See [[Working Group Agreement]] for more about the relationship of working groups to Identity Commons.<br />
* To propose a new working group, start with the [[Working Group Charter Template]]. <br />
<br />
Working Groups must have a charter that is consistent with our [[Purpose And Principles]], and it must appoint a Steward. The Steward serves as the Working Group's representative on the [[Stewards Council]] and has a vote on organizational-wide issues, including approving of new Working Groups. Working Groups are welcome to appoint one alternative to serve on the [[Stewards Council]] when the main Steward is not available to vote.<br />
<br />
An individual may be appointed the Steward of multiple WorkingGroups; however, the individual will only get one vote.<br />
<br />
== Active Groups ==<br />
<br />
The following is a list of active groups. Click on the charter pages for a general description, or go directly to the working group's own home page (often an external website).<br />

Each icon points to a document that describes the sharing capabilities in detail, perhaps even including special cases for certain types of data (such as credit card numbers, etc.).<br />
<br />
This document could be ''anything'' from XML to a Word doc (or better, an OpenOffice .odt document) as both sides simply digitally sign and date a (SHA1) hash of this document as part of their agreement to its terms.<br />
<br />
Since these documents are stable (occasionally versioned as the Creative Commons licenses are, but old versions archived and accessible) from the signed hash one can later prove what document was agreed to.<br />
<br />
While this proof may provide legal leverage, reputation metrics will be the key. Reputation servers will collect proofs that a service provider (RP) signed an IRA and didn't abide by its requirements, and good user agents will look up and display these reputation metrics to a person when being confronted with requests for information. So sites will have a strong incentive to behave well and earn the equivalent of a ''Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval''.</div>=fenhttp://wiki.idcommons.org/index.php?title=Identity_Rights_Agreements&diff=330Identity Rights Agreements2007-12-17T04:20:55Z<p>=fen: </p>
