3.1.   ISO/IEC 18035-7 and OpenID4VP Draft

Nat pointed out that there does not seem to be any WGLC before the OpenID4VP Implementer's draft public review period. It is only with the consensus that editors can ask the foundation to start the public review, but there was no call for consensus in the mailing list.

Mike claimed that he made it in the Atlantic call, but Nat pointed out that that is not the WG consensus. We are diverse timezone-wise, and we have to do it in the mailing list. Apparently, there was some discontent from the Pacific call side, so it should not be ignored. We could even stop the process.

Mike claimed that process should not get into what we want to do, but Nat replied that as an SDO, not following the rule is the last thing it may want to do.

Mike claimed that if we stop the process, ISO/IEC 18035-7 will kick us out. Nat questioned that claim. Conveniently Andrew Hughes, who is in SC17 as well working in ISO for a long time came in, and Nat asked Andrew to explain the situation.

As it turns out, ISO/IEC TS 18035-7 is still a WD (stage 20.00 "New project registered"). Thus, it is in expert mode. There are about 30 people in the room, among which about 10 of them support OpenID4VP. So, from the consensus process point of view, editors should not remove the text as long as the text is reasonable.

It seems that the priority is to have high-quality text to be included in 18035-7. In the meantime, the text on the foundation side should also be polished. The recent merging of PR, for example, did not meet Brian's expectations but was merged quickly. That kind of thing should not happen.

Mike has volunteered to do a close read on the OpeID4VP spec. Andrew is going to do the ISO side text as well as the OpenID4VP spec.

The call adjourned at 00:01 UTC.
