So we have had a fabulous series of open space events since May's Internet Identity Workshop . The Identity Mashup at Berkman 3rd Day Open Space Post Liberty Alliance Identity Open Space specifically but also as major themes at Mashup Camp that had 5 sessions on identity and at OSCON and OSCamp.

I think one the reason things have been developing rapidly is because of the open opportunities to address critical issues and reflect as a community on next steps. So there is another one coming up before the next Internet Identity Workshop in December.

The Monday of Digital Identity World's start we are hosting an Identity Open Space at the Santa Clara Convention Center. It will begin at 9am with agenda creation with sessions starting at 9:30 going until 3 when DIDW officially starts.

The cost is $25 just to cover lunch - so we can eat on site. Please sign up here... and add your name to the wiki and post suggested topics you bring to the conversation.

You also get a discount on attending Digital Identity World if you come to the Identity Open Space.
I know it is a bit of a challenge to travel on Sunday but I hope those of you from out of town will choose to do that. Hopefully we can get lost of folks working on new web tools who might be able to actually use - user-centric identity. Besides who wants to get on a plane on September 11th.
