Subject: Action required: WGLC - Seeking WG consensus on iGov OAuth 2.0 profile readiness to begin Implementers Draft review process S: Jan 12, 2026

Dear Working Group members and contributors,

We would like to get WG consensus that the current International Government Assurance Profile (iGov) for OAuth 2.0 - draft (09) - is ready to start the Implementer's Draft approval process.

ACTION: Please respond to this email within the next 25 days, by January 12, 2026, end of business hours in PST, whether you believe the current draft should proceed or not.

At the December 9 iGov WG meeting, after resolving remaining issues and pull requests, we determined consensus to CHANGE the next scheduled iGov WG meeting from Jan 6 to Jan 13 to afford members ample time to thoroughly review the specification without compromising any holiday plans.

The iGov OAuth 2.0 profile document to be reviewed can be found here: https://openid.bitbucket.io/iGov/openid-igov-oauth2-1_0.html
The iGov WG repository is here: https://bitbucket.org/openid/igov/src/master/
The details of the Implementer's Draft approval process can be found here: https://openid.net/wg/resources/approving-specifications/ 
This email is about the first bullet point on this list, which is sometimes called Working Group Last Call (WGLC).

Following WG consensus, next steps are to start a 45-day Foundation-wide review, followed by the 7-day voting period (the poll itself will open 7 days before the end of the Foundation-wide review ends). Foundation-wide review could end on or about March 1, 2026.

Kindest regards,
Editors & Chairs
