[Openid-specs-risc] New Leadership for RISC WG

[Stan Bounev]

Adam, thanks for driving this effort the last couple of years. The group accomplished a lot.

Annabelle and Marius, good luck in your new capacity.

Are you interested in organizing an in-person meeting in the Seattle area? The last one was very productive.

Stan

Adam,
Thanks very much for chairing the group and guiding us to this date. I hope your new journey will be a fruitful one again.

Welcome Annabelle and Marius. The RISC effort is an important one for the identity industry and beyond. I am looking forward to work with you.

Best,

Nat

Hi again everyone,

As there haven't been any other nominations for WG chair, I would like to again thank Marius and Annabelle for volunteering to congratulate them both as the new co-chairs of RISC.

thanks,
AD

Hi all,

Since we published our Implementers Draft of the RISC spec last year,  there has been much activity from the RISC WG. We've had success with Google launching RISC Transmitter support at the beginning of the year and so far the spec seems to be holding up well with implementers at Google.

But I've been waiting to make a call for final publication for two reasons. First, I think we should adjust the specs based on IETF RFCs that are in the process of getting ratified and second, I think we should get some operational deployments in place of the RISC implicit relationship using the user registration API.

However, I've just recently rolled off of my position on Google's identity team and consequently will also be stepping down as chair of the RISC working group. I've reached out to Marius Scurtescu (Coinbase, formerly Google) and Annabelle Backman (Amazon) and I'm delighted that they are interested in chairing the work group going forward. I formally nominate them to take over as co-chairs. They have both been instrumental in defining the specs so far and have also participated extensively in the SecEvents WG at IETF.

If anyone wants to nominate someone else for chair, please do so on the list by September 4. We can have a formal vote as necessary after that.

It's been a great pleasure working with this community to get the RISC spec established so that we can better protect users. I wish the group luck moving forward.

thanks,
AD
