OK – I’ll amend the minutes accordingly.  You hadn’t responded to the 
board-private draft version sent per policy for review purposes so I assumed 
that the draft version was correct.  Are there any other amendments needed?

Subject: Re: [OpenID board] April 27, 2016 OpenID Board Meeting Minutes

Hey Mike -- I'm not sure it really matters, but I was on the phone for this 
meeting.  I didn't say anything because I was in the airport (and then onboard 
my aircraft), but was present for whole meeting, only missing the very 
beginning and a little bit of the meeting that went over the time at the end 
there.

Thanks!

1.       New Board Member
We welcomed Oracle to the board.  Prateek Mishra and Phil Hunt are in 
attendance from Oracle.

Prateek said that Oracle is working to integrate an identity fabric with 
business services – both for external applications and within the company.  
Phil Hunt said that SCIM is very important to Oracle and sees potential 
synergies between SCIM and OpenID Connect.  Phil talked about developing best 
deployment practices.  George and Brian and John affirmed Oracle’s goals.  Phil 
expressed a desire for us to evaluate the possibility of doing SCIM interop and 
possibly conformance work, which the IETF doesn’t do.


2.       Legal and Policy Review
Tom has been going through our mostly 7-year-old legal documents, addressing 
issues found.  One item was to create a software contribution agreement based 
upon the Google contribution agreement.  Some members and potential members had 
also identified issues.  We are explicitly not touching the IPR Policy and IPR 
Process documents.

Tom has sent revised copies to the EC for review and is awaiting comments.  
Then they will be circulated to the full board.  The new versions separate 
policies from procedures.

Mike described that the IPR policy and process documents are, by design, 
difficult to update.  Nat pointed out that we did update them once, in 2009, to 
streamline the specifications council working group approval procedures.


3.       Status of Trademarks
There is a deadline of May 6th for a response to a trademark registration 
refusal in Canada, which is related to SXIP’s registration of OpenID in Canada. 
 Mike Jones and Don Thibeau are in communication with Dick Hardt about 
assigning SXIP’s registration to the OpenID Foundation, which Dick has agreed 
to do.


4.       OpenID Certification
Mike reported on the status of the certification program.  The number of 
registrations continues to grow.  Registrations are now being paid for by 
registrants.  OpenID Connect working group members and Don are working with 
Roland Hedberg on advancing the RP certification program during IIW.


5.       Website Update
Mike reported that we are making substantial progress both towards deploying 
the revised membership Ruby code and towards transitioning from Darin 
Richardson, as our web site developer to Nov Matake, who has agreed to become 
our new web site developer.  Mike and Don have continued to work with both 
Darin and with OSUOSL and are happy to report that the new code is now running 
on a staging server and another server that will be put in production to 
replace the 7-year old Ruby deployment, after the new code has been evaluated 
and accepted.


6.       Working Group Updates
There were substantive working group updates at the OpenID workshop on Monday, 
so we didn’t repeat most of that content here.

Adam reported that Google is working on opening up their Android password 
manager and Account Chooser experience to other platforms.  This would require 
a standard password manager API.  That work is happening in the W3C Web 
Credentials working group.  The Account Chooser working group may choose to 
utilize and build upon this functionality.


7.       Financial Update
The foundation is in sound financial shape.  The legal efforts have been the 
primary cost driver but there are sufficient existing funds to cover that work 
without needing directed funding.


8.       Recognizing Substantive Contributions to the Foundation and its Mission
In recognition of their substantive contributions towards the creation of the 
OpenID Foundation and their long-term technical contributions to OpenID 
Foundation specifications, the foundation elected to honor David Recordon, Dick 
Hardt, and Drummond Reed by offering them lifetime invited expert status and 
accompanying free lifetime individual OpenID Foundation memberships.  John made 
the motion and Adam seconded it.  The motion passed unanimously.


9.       Communication about Security Best Practices
William Denniss led a productive discussion at IIW based on input from George 
Fletcher at the Monday OpenID workshop on OAuth mix-up attacks and related 
issues.  We gathered notes about vulnerabilities for purposes of possibly 
publishing them as an informative note on the OpenID blog.

Don pointed out that our mission includes adoption.  He said that publishing 
advice to developers is a way of adding value to members, including 
internationally.  We might call it a “Deployment Advisory” in the title.  Mike 
said that it would be OK for the blog category to be “Security Advisory” but 
people thought that was too strong to use in the title.  Our communication 
needs to include information on cross-site request forgery and the mix-up 
attacks.

We will ask William Denniss to be lead author on the text.  Mike, John, George, 
Phil, and Don will review the text.

George moved that we publish information conveying the security and deployment 
guidance.  Brian seconded the motion.  John pointed out that we can coordinate 
with NIST, who has mechanisms for publishing security advisories, and that that 
might have a favorable side-effect of helping to deepen NISTs engagement with 
the OpenID Foundation.
