DESCRIPTION:https://www.w3.org/events/meetings/aa06f202-7a9b-4605-ac95-26b2
 a6370278/\n\nPeople already share their real identity on the Web\, but the
 y primarily share them through unsophisticated means: selfies\, photograph
 s of documents\, and typing out numbers from identity documents. Countries
  are increasingly issuing their residents' identity documents in digital\,
  cryptographic formats. Some jurisdictions\, like the EU\, will require th
 at digital credentials be respected in multiple contexts\, including on th
 e Web.\n\nWe are at a critical point for the use of these identities on th
 e Web\; they are\, for now\, not part of the web platform and are not bein
 g presented online by most users. How long this lasts does not depend enti
 rely on browsers. OpenID4VP describes multiple mechanisms to allow a websi
 te to request another application on the device that holds credentials to 
 ask the user to prove their identity.\n\nWork on building an API for prese
 nting digital identity documents and designing how that must interact with
  wallets and existing identity protocols has begun in WICG. While the disc
 ussion there does extend beyond the purely technical\, we think there is b
 enefit in bringing a discussion to a broader audience with emphasis on the
  ecosystem\, security\, and privacy impacts of that work.\n\nThe following
  are just some of the questions that don’t have clear consensus:\n\n* Wh
 at should a browser store about wallets\, credentials\, and their use?\n* 
 To what extent should we trust the issuing government? Does that include t
 rust for privacy properties?\n* What are the use cases we should support? 
 What justifies different approaches?  What common aspects are shared?\n* H
 ow does the role of the wallet as a user agent interact with that of the b
 rowser?\n* What criteria must be required of real-world identity protocols
  to be included in the web platform?\n* What conditions should be placed o
 n release of data?  Is consent the right control to apply here?  Or should
  a credential issuer have a say as well?\n* How do we ensure that use of c
 redentials is justified and proportionate? Is there a need to establish a 
 means to limit who can obtain credentials?\n\n**Goal(s):**\nWork toward a 
 consensus view of what the role of Real World Identity should be on the We
 b in the next 5-10 years.\n\n**Track(s):**\n- identity\n\nAgenda\n\n- 5 mi
 n: Chair describes the problem and state of the world for RWI and provides
  some leading open questions\n- 35 min: Open discussion of participant’s
  views on what the role of Real World Identity should be\n- 10 min: Focus 
 discussion toward common beliefs among attendees\, or common beliefs among
  constituencies\n\n**Materials:**\n- [Session proposal on GitHub](https://
