PING @ IETF 94 - some takeaways

Many thanks to PING members and friends for joining our informal meeting last Thursday (5 November 2015) alongside IETF 94.

Some takeaways =>

* We need to progress the work on the PING privacy questionnaire [1], which would complement and supplement the draft Self-Review Questionnaire: Security and Privacy [2], and move to call for PING consensus to publish the document as a Working Draft Interest Group Note.

Please provide input on the draft.

* Some potential new W3C work

The W3C is exploring two distinct areas of potential new work: 

Web Authentication: https://w3c.github.io/websec/web-authentication-charter

Hardware-Based Security: https://w3c.github.io/websec/hasec-charter

* PING should take a close look at the privacy implications of:

Geofencing API: http://www.w3.org/TR/geofencing/
Service Workers: http://www.w3.org/TR/service-workers/
The Permissions API: http://www.w3.org/TR/permissions/

Please review and provide comments.
