A well attended, informative and well structured webinar today took more than 200 online participants through the steps to kick off of the Steering Group for the US National Strategy for Trusted Identities in Cyberspace, NSTIC.
Yes, it is true that I have been nominated for the position of Chair of the proposed Management Council, and I will respond to the nomination and post further information next week.
In the meantime, it would seem that an appropriate watchword should be “Workability” – after more than a year in the works, it would be a pity if the kick off meeting in Chicago in two weeks were bogged down in procedural wrangles over the bylaws and elections: the proposed 6 month interim period for all elected posts is an excellent idea that will hopefully allow all participants to get down to substantive work from the get-go.
