Re: Minutes of the W3C/IETF Coordination Call, 2012-02-28

Thanks, Stefan, for the heads-up; I hope that Harry Halpin and Wendy Seltzer, who are working on crypto APIs and identity related topics for us, will be able to attend that session

To add some context, the proposal currently under review is specifically for crypto APIs.  That seemed a well-enough defined piece of work to just move ahead with it.  We're still looking into what exact piece of "identity" related work would be useful for us to take up.  Hence the side session in Paris.
