Re: Business Scenarios

2007-01-14 Thread Dick Hardt
We are working on a "citizen-centric" solution for regional set of  
public sector organizations. Most of the major IdM vendors are  
involved, but no white papers have been published at this time.

If something exists in this space but hasn't been written up, maybe  
I could task several industry analysts to provide coverage.

Good question for VeriSign!

I don't have ALL conferences, but here are some that I known of:

Catalyst, Digital ID World, Gartner IdM.

Additionally, there are the Web 2.0 and O'Reilly Emerging tech  
conferences.

I am speaking at a couple of CERT conferences and the W3C conference  
as well as a couple European IdM conferences.

I have briefed Gartner, Forrester and the Burton Group on OpenID and  
the user-centric model.

User-centric identity was discussed in several presentations at the  
last Catalyst conference. At that time, SXIP/DIX and OpenID had not  
converged and DIX had more prominence.
