[KI-LC] UDVPI-WG Supplemental Budget Request

[J. Trent Adams]

All -

As you saw in the agenda for tomorrow's LC teleconference, Iain has
submitted a Supplemental Budget Request for 2009 on behalf of the UDVPI-WG:

http://kantarainitiative.org/confluence/x/GQDTAQ

This request is to help fund the preliminary phase of a proposed
research project with the ultimate goal being to:

    "produce a statistically valid body or research
     available to consortia partners that will enable
     product / service design for those wishing to
     deploy and engage with user-centric / user-
     driven identities."

ISOC has independently allocated US$4,000 to help fund this initial
phase, and the request is for an additional US$5,000 from Kantara.

The following KI WGs have already expressed interest in the work:

  * Privacy & Public Policy
  * User Managed Access
  * eGov
  * Consumer Identity

Unfortunately, Iain will not be able to attend the call tomorrow, so it
would help if you could review the document in advance and send him (or
reply to the list) with any immediate questions.  We can pick up the
discussion on the call and see what we need to do from there, knowing
that any questions requiring Iain will need to be deferred.

Thanks,
Trent
