We can use ID for identifier, and IDn, or IDT for identity (although sometimes IDT is used for identity theft).

Hi Robert

Thanks for our comment.

The Identifier/Identity definitions in draft-padma-ideas-problem-statement-01.txt is a good start, it fails in the appreviations used. (There is NO abbreviation for Identity!)

Yes I see your point.


ID should NOT be the appreviation of Identitfier.  People will default to thinking 'Identity' when they see it.  Think about people outside our discussion group.

I propose 'IDf' for Identifier.  'ID' is too owned by Identity.

I feel in the past they were used  interchangeably depending on protocols which further muddles the water.
May be we should have IDy and IDr?


I will be working on proposed wording to improve these definitions.

Great!

Thanks
Padma
