1.      GotoMeeting Account
We agreed to renew the gotomeeting account, which is only costing us about 
$50/month and which we use a lot.


2.      EU Trademark Update
We are making progress in transferring the European trademark registrations.  
France is the remaining country we are working on.


3.      IPR Update
As part of our recruitment efforts, we've engaged numerous organizations and 
companies.  Some of these engagements have identified issues people have with 
the current IPR policy.  We could handle some of these cases through an IPR 
FAQ.  Some may require actual IPR changes.  Mike has volunteered to have 
Microsoft's standards lawyers look at the issues.

Tom Smedinghoff is gathering data for the FAQ by looking at the last year's 
back and forth with potential members, identifying issues that were raised.  
That data will be provided to the EC.


4.      OpenID Connect Self-Certification
Certification planning is heating up.  A stretch goal is to have a baseline set 
of certification profiles and requirements defined and tested with early 
certification results announced at the RSA conference in April.  The OIX is 
working on scoping out the requirements from a legal perspective.  The working 
group has started defining and prioritizing a set of conformance profiles.  
Roland is willing to work on a certification test site for the foundation.  Don 
will work with Roland on a draft statement of work.  Symantec will likely 
provide domain names and hosting for the site.   Mike Leszcz is managing the 
certification registration project for OIX.

We will need to make business decisions about whether to charge anything for 
testing and/or registration.  John asserted that we shouldn't charge anything 
for testing.  Mike advocated that OIDF members should be able be certified for 
free but that we may want to charge non-members a fee equal to what it would 
cost for them to join the OIDF.  Don will take a stab at documenting the 
possible business processes.


5.      Mobile Connect Profile Working Group
The GSMA continues to be very enthusiastic about the mobile connect profile and 
they are baking OpenID Connect into their Mobile World Congress planning for 
next year.  Don is speaking about the work of the foundation at the CTIA 
conference next week.  Four UK mobile network operators and the UK government 
have agreed on a set of pilots using Connect.  The working group has another 
meeting scheduled for later this month.


6.      Health Information Exchange Profile
Debbie Bucci and others are working on a charter for the proposed working group.


7.      Account Chooser Working Group
Google is now bootstrapping accounts into the Account Chooser.  The working 
group is working on recruiting additional bootstrapping participants.  Pamela 
Dingle is now reviewing the specification.  It may be ready to go to 
Implementer's Draft status soon.


8.      OpenID Connect Working Group
The working group is working on self-certification.  The OpenID 2.0 Migration 
spec is about ready for Implementer's Draft review.  It provides a standard way 
for OpenID 2.0 deployments to migrate to OpenID Connect.  The errata changes 
will be reviewed at the same time.


9.      Native Applications Working Group
They are having a face-to-face meeting tomorrow.  There are ~60 registered 
participants.  Most of them are new to the work.


10.   October 27 OpenID Workshop
Each working group needs to decide how to use their time at the workshop.  
Registration is at https://openid-wg-oct-2014.eventbrite.com.  They should try 
to do so soon so we can update the agenda as necessary.
