[TC-RG] [SECURITY-AREA] TC RG Proposed Shutdown

[Blair Dillaway]

Dear Security Area Participants:

 

Given the lack of response to this mail, we will begin the process of
shutting down the TC-RG at this time.

 

I wish to thank Wenbo and Andrew for their efforts in forming the group
and attempting to build interest in this potentially valuable
technology. It seems however, this may have been somewhat premature. I
would hope we can revisit this in the future as the technology becomes
more widely available and the community gains practical experience with
it.

 

Regards,

Blair Dillaway and David Groep, Security ADs

Subject: [SECURITY-AREA] TC RG Proposed Shutdown

 

Dear Security Area Participants:

 

We have recently completed a review of the security area groups. Based
on the results, we propose to disband the Trusted Computing Research
Group (TC RG). We have noted that during the past year:

- There has been no substantive progress on the chartered deliverables

- There have been no active discussions on the mailing list or regular
conferences calls

- Attendance at the TC RG sessions has been minimal

 

We have queried the chairpersons about their continued interest and
thoughts on re-invigorating this activity. Their responses indicate:

- They are unable to commit to completing the existing draft use-case
document

- They do not have a proposal for re-chartering the group to engage a
critical mass of participants

 

We would appreciate hearing from anyone who is willing to commit to
completing the chartered deliverables and participating in possible
follow-on work. Unless a sufficient number of committed participants
come forward in the next 2-3 weeks, we will start the process of
shutting down the group. 

 

Regards,

Blair Dillaway and David Groep, Security ADs
