Dear Advisory Committee Representative,
[This announcement will be forwarded to W3C group chairs]

W3C is pleased to announce the charter of the Federated Identity Working 
Group.
https://www.w3.org/2024/03/wg-fedid-charter.html

The group is chartered through 28 March 2026.

The mission of the Federated Identity Working Group is to develop 
specifications to allow a website to request a federated identity 
credential or assertion with the purpose of authenticating a user and/or 
requesting a set of claims in a compatible way to OIDC or SAML.

Please use the following form to have your organization join the group. 
The form will also instruct you how to nominate participants:
https://www.w3.org/groups/wg/fedid/join

Please consider diversity when proposing people to participate in W3C 
groups. Representation from a wider group of people, especially people 
from under-represented groups, is vital for creating web standards that 
meet the needs of the wider web community.

The group plans to have its first major virtual meeting in June, 
followed by a face-to-face meeting at TPAC 2024.

The group chairs are Heather Flanagan (Spherical Cow Consulting) and 
Wendy Seltzer (W3C Invited Expert). The Team Contact is Simone Onofri, 
<simone@w3.org>, for a total of 0.25 FTE.

More information about the group can be found on the group home page:
