Discussion

The meeting started with a review of the minutes of the January 17 call. The draft minutes were approved with two minor changes.

The call next moved on to the PKI mobility group. The first step was to reach consensus on a time for the regular conference calls that would include the largest number of participants. The group agreed to hold these calls on the Thursdays of the weeks without a TAG call, at 1:00 Eastern. Kevin and Renee will work to get the calls scheduled. Renee will email the names of people presently subscribed to the TAG mobility mailing list.

I believe that we also discussed using the Thursday time slot on the same week as the TAG calls for the certificate profile convergence calls.

The discussion then moved on to the agenda for the mobility group's work and some quick comments on the mobility scenarios that were written for submission to the SACRED working group.

The next topic discussed was the inventory of planned PKI applications and the general classification of PKI applications for the purpose of the certificate profile convergence process. The group decided that both efforts were worthwhile. Jim will update the applications spreadsheet. Members of the TAG list actively working on deployments will email information for the spreadsheet to Jim.

The discussion next moved to the browser usability document prepared by David Wasley, and our planned next steps with the document. Everyone agreed that we should attempt to get the document to the correct people at Microsoft and iPlanet. David will work on a contact at iPlanet. Jim will contact Michael Gettes on potential contacts at Microsoft. Also discussed was the fact that the Mozilla process is open -- the group looked (unsuccessfully) for a volunteer to monitor and/or become involved with that process.

Finally, the group had another short discussion of dc naming. We reflected on the earlier document and considered modifying it to be a little less strongly worded and adding some comments about standard practice. Both OpenLDAP and Microsoft place the dc name components together in the most significant part of the field, as in our original document.
