Is ICF a specification organization?
A. No. The overarching intent of ICF is to promote and accelerate Information Card proliferation. This will be done primarily through marketing activities and open source software implementations. If existing specifications can be used or easily extended, they will be. Only if a new specification is needed will ICF approve a working group to make recommendations toward a specification. An actual specification would be done through an internationally recognized standards body technical committee established to perform this work.
