- Discussion
- Cihan Colakoglu (Kyocera) is eager but is still awaiting management approval
- Smith in email dialog with Brian Volkoff (Ricoh) who said he wasn't clear on the
IDS WG's objectives
- HCD TC started out as a group for the bi-lateral HCD PP (US and Japan) under the
Common Criteria Users Forum (CCUF)
- HCD TC is still associated with CCUF, but is now formally part of Common Criteria
itself, since the recent chartering of HCD iTC (International Technical Community)
- Is it a standalone group?
- Not really - see history above
- IDS WG is a group of PWG member companies who have similar goals who want to
coordinate efforts in the HCD iTC as well as other standards bodies
- Independent perspective because there are other (not CC-centric) people involved
- Has this been articulated in the IDS WG charter?
- If not, it should be - but it may already say this
- Ira updated last version of IDS WG charter and believes that it *is* articulated
- Alan Sukert (retiring from Xerox in April) could still be an IDS WG Co-Chair, but not
a PWG Officer
