Ok. I suppose the goal was not well defined, or I misunderstood it.
However, I understand that the required definition is not for "Digital
Identity" (which, I persist to think, embed a notion of "uniqueness"),
but rather for something like "exchange of parts of a digital
identity".
I am right ?
A stable (but may be arbitrary, after all) definition of "digital
identity" should be useful, when defining "exchange of parts of a
digital identity". Shouldn't it ?
I think of my identity as everything about me that expresses who I am.
Being Canadian is part of my identity.
Dick Hardt is part of my identity.
Given that, a Digital Identity Exchange is a way of presenting or
receiving digital representations of part of my identity with a host.
Does that clarify anything or add to the confusion?
