Description of Working Group:
The Internet Open Trading Protocol is an interoperable framework for
Internet commerce. It is optimized for the case where the buyer and
the merchant do not have a prior acquaintance and is payment system
independent. It can encapsulate and support payment systems such as
SET, Mondex, secure channel card payment, GeldKarte, etc. IOTP is
able to handle cases where such merchant roles as the shopping site,
the payment handler, the deliverer of goods or services, and the
provider of customer support are performed by different Internet
sites.
The working group will document interoperability experience with
IOTP version 1 (which has been published as an Informational RFC)
and develop the requirements and specifications for IOTP version 2.
Version 2 will make use of an independent Messaging Layer and utilize
standard XML Digital Signatures. Selection of other items for
inclusion in version requirements 2 is to be from the following:
- Dynamic Definition of Trading Sequences
- Offer Request Block
- Improved Problem Resolution (extend to cover presentation of
signed receipt to customer support party, etc.)
- Ability to indicate and handle a payment protocol not
tunneled through IOTP
- Support for wallet servers
- Repeated/ongoing payments - Server to Server messages
- The ability to add both fields and attributes to trading blocks
- Collaboration with other protocols such as ECML.
The following is out of scope for IOTP version 2:
- legal or regulatory issues surrounding the implementation of
the protocol or information systems using it.
- design of an XML Messaging Layer
The working group will specify a Secure Channel Credit Debit syntax
that can be used for financial card payments in connection with
IOTP.
The working group will specify requirements and specifications for
Generic Rights Trading.
The working group will specify requirements for and then a syntax
and processing model of ECML (Electronic Commerce Modeling Language)
V2.

o The document currently in RFC editor queue is as follows:
- Internet Open Trade Protocol Version 2 Requirement
[draft-ietf-trade-iotp2-req-01.txt]
o The document approved by IESG is as follows:
- Requirements for Generic Voucher Trading
[draft-ietf-trade-drt-requirements-03.txt]
(The document is returned for wording improvement)
o The documents with Area Director/IESG is as follows:
- SET supplement for the v1.0 Internet Open Trading Protocol (IOTP)
[draft-ietf-trade-iotp-v1.0-set-02.txt]
- Payment API for v1.0 Internet Open Trading Protocol
[draft-ietf-trade-iotp-v1.0-papi-05.txt]
- Electronic Commerce Modeling Language (ECML) Version 2 Requirements
[draft-ietf-trade-ecml2-req-05.txt]
- Internet Open Trading Protocol (IOTP) Version 1 Errata
[draft-ietf-trade-iotp-v1-errata-01.txt]
3. XML Voucher Updates
Ko Fujimura presented the updates made to the document "XML Voucher: Generic
Voucher Language" [draft-ietf-trade-voucher-lang-03.txt]. The major updates were
as follows:
1) changed the targetNamespace format from "http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfcXXXX" to
"urn:ietf:params:xml:schema:vts-lang" so as to comply with the recent draft: The
IETF XML Registry [draft-mealling-iana-xmlns-registry-03.txt]
2) added IANA consideration section 7 for calling IANA to register the schema.
One open issue, whether to add ID attribute to the <Voucher> element, was
addressed. Ko proposed not to add the ID attribute, but to generate the ID on
the fly instead. His proposal was put under the discussion and no objection was
made; The ID attribute would not be included in the <Voucher> element if Donald
accepts the idea.
Ko also reported on recent discussions with related consortiums, namely IrFM
(Infrared Financial Messaging) in IrDA, IXRetail (Retail Enterprise Data in XML
Initiative) in ARTS (Association for Retail Technology Standards), WAP Forum
(now Open Mobile Alliance), and MeT (Mobile electronic Transactions). He
emphasized the consistency of the VTS specifications to other specifications
developed by these consortiums (See Slides).
4. VTS-API Updates
Ko introduces the update made to the document "Voucher Trading System
Application Programming Interface (VTS-API)"
[draft-ietf-trade-voucher-vtsapi-02.txt].
The only update made to the document was the addition of a new exception
"FeatureNotAvailableException," which is to be returned when an unsupported
method is invoked.
There was no opposition to the update.
5. Voucher Implementation Demo
Makoto Iguchi presented how VTS-APIs are to be invoked by demonstrating the
actual voucher issuing/collecting applications and voucher wallet application.
In the demo, he showed that the same APIs can be used for handling vouchers
regardless of whether the voucher storage is implemented with a smartcard or an
account (i.e. a database on a server).
6. Voucher Discussion
A straw poll was taken as to whether the XML Voucher and the VTS-API proposals
are ready to advance to Proposed Standard. The consensus was to proceed them to
the Proposed Standard. They are to be in WG last call by August 2.
7. ECML V2 Specification:
Joel presented the updates made to the document "Electronic Commerce Modeling
Language (ECML) Version 2 Specification"
[draft-ietf-trade-ecml2-spec-03.txt]. The updates were as follows:
1)Added several fields:
- the merchant to processor field
- Ecom_Wallet_Location field
- Ecom_User_Certificate_URL fields
- Ecom_Device fields
- Ecom_Loyalty_Card fields
- Ecom_UserData fields
2)Added an attribute:
- the "Mode" attribute
Joel also addressed that there was an controversy in the format
Ecom_UserData_Country in the mailing list. The options presented include:
- use country code specified in ISO 3166
- use country code specified in ISO 3166 with escape value and _Country_Other
field
- introduce a new registry
No tentative decision was made at the meeting.
8. Future Actions/Meetings:
The author/editors volunteers for the document "SCCD using ECML Specification"
and "IOTP version 2 Specification" were asked, and was agreed to be discussed in
the mailing list.
Joel proposed to have the next trade WG meeting at Atlanta.
