Although John has put out a SXIP-like DIX draft, there is no reason for anyone to accept it at face-value. At this point the only thing of value is the purpose and reasoning set forward in the charter document. >> I don't think that we need a protocol to interoperate with other >> protocols.

It sure would be nice to have a single system that wasn't controlled by one company to connect the islands. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeff Hodges Sent: Tuesday, January 24, 2006 3:57 PM To: Digital Identity Exchange Subject: Re: [dix] To add to the charter John Merrells wrote: > > On 20-Jan-06, at 10:08 PM, Johannes Ernst wrote: > >> - but you also say that we should just be codifying existing practice >> ... which existing practice are you referring to? > > As I wrote in draft #0: 'For example: SXIP, LID, OpenID, and Passel.' and you left out SAML, Liberty, and WS-Federation, at least. >> As far as I know, the only technology that makes some of the >> technologies you listed interoperate so far (and only partially, >> because SXIP is not involved) is YADIS...

You're dreaming. Those horses are out of the barn and off in the next state. Thus, seems to me that the YADIS work (http://yadis.org/) is more relevant and interesting than this here attempt to get an IETF rubber-stamp for sxip.
