This 1-day workshop / public meeting on Open Government Identity Management Solutions Privacy appears to be free (except lunch is "on own"!) but registration is on a first come first served basis - it certainly sounds worth signing up if you're going to be in Washington DC next Monday.
Organised by the Information Card Foundation with the U.S. General Service Administration (GSA) and other Internet identity organizations, the agenda includes discussion of open trust frameworks and privacy issues, in particular a couple of US Federal ICAM (Identity, Credential and Access Management) papers of 8 July 2009:
- "Trust Framework Provider Adoption Process for Levels of Assurance 1, 2, and non-PKI 3"
- "Identity Scheme Adoption Process"
and the speakers will include representatives from OpenID, InfoCard, InCommon and Kantara Initiative as well as the US federal government.
I'm not able to go, obviously - so I hope there will be full reports of the event, which sounds very interesting.

This is fantastic. Here’s to open government and the open web! I believe OpenID will continue to be the most convenient and trustworthy open identity standard on the Web. Open standards create a better Internet for everyone, and the U.S. government's adoption of OpenID is a huge endorsement of OpenID and a big step forward for open standards.
