Hello idpy board members!
On our annual call earlier this year, we discussed meeting after the R&E/FedCM Hackathon to determine what impact (if any) the outcomes of that meeting would have on idpy.
First off, the meeting was quite successful in that the group came up with two proposals that might be viable and allow browser to distinguish between unconsented tracking and a federated authentication flow without messing with the protocols involved. You can read the proposals here:
https://github.com/fedidcg/proposals/issues/4https://github.com/fedidcg/proposals/issues/5
The group did not have time to really dive into the proxy use cases; we will come back to that after we’ve received feedback on the initial proposals. It does sound like pyff might be a part of at least one if not both of the proposals; Leif, Sam (Google) and others will look at that as part of early prototyping to kick these proposals around a bit.
Beyond that, I don’t think the board has much we need to do at this time. If you have any questions or are interested in following the work, you can either join the FedID CG or the new REFEDS working group (which will focus entirely on the R&E use case).
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks! Heather
