Re: Web Identity WG Composition

Hi Hannes,

I know that nobody wants to hear the truth but the fact is that the
big three doesn't need a committee to bring out new identity solutions.
They can do that in their own eco-systems.

It is also *forbidden* to speak openly about requirements if you work
for a vendor like Apple or Microsoft.  Google haven't described anything
about their wallet and the chip is under NDA.

Given these conditions, I don't see how we could succeed.

Regarding my project, I just want to put it out :-)
The controversy with Open Security Hardware makes it it an unreachable topic
for an SDO.
