[projectvrm] Announcement: ISWG Announcement: Name Change to Consent & Information Sharing WG (CISWG)

[Mary Hodder < >]

Hi All,

I wanted to share a quick announcement, which is relevant for those 
interested Notice and Consent, privacy policies as they are now and what will 
happen in the future as people make requests about what happens to data they 
share, etc.

The Kantara Working Group, Information Sharing Working Group, has added the 
word, Consent, to the front of our name.

This may seem like a minor change, but it establishes our missing to include 
Notice and Consent, which is a changing issue in various jurisdictions,
and complicated as entities like California, or the EU, make more 
requirements about how Notice and Consents happen, and begin requiring
Consent Receipts.

The Open Notice ad-hoc group, working under CISWG is attempting to work 
through the various issues with Notice and Consent and Receipts in 
preparation for these
new requirements. 

The goal is to have open source, interoperable standards, schemas and code. 

AND we will shortly announce a Legal Hackathon in the Bay Area, NYC and 
London, which will work toward these goals.

Stay tuned, and let us know if you want to help or participate !
