2007 Q4 Report Identity Rights

This is the first report to Identity Commons on activities of the Identity Rights Agreements group.

Successes

 * An "Identity Rights Matrix" has been suggeseted, though words and icons are still needed. It is not yet in final form.
 * Collaborations:
 * Discussion with the proposed Identity Trust working group have revealed similarities that may be useful going forward.
 * Similar discussions with the VRM group have begun and look promising.

Breakdowns

 * Most people don't know what identity rights are or how they can be used.
 * We need to better define the matrix axis titles and provide examples.

Requests

 * Help in this working group.
 * More work needs to be done to unify the concepts and goals of this group and:
 * Identity Trust
 * Project VRM
 * Link Contracts

Announcements

 * In October, Dan Perry stepped aside from chairing this group and Fen Labalme stepped in and is current Steward.
