In 2005, [Kaliya Young](https://identitywoman.net/)[[t](https://twitter.com/IdentityWoman)], [Phil Windley](https://windley.com)[[t](https://twitter.com/windley)], [Drummond Reed](https://www.evernym.com/)[[t](https://twitter.com/drummondreed)], and [Doc Searls](http://blogs.harvard.edu/doc/)[[t](https://twitter.com/dsearls)] hosted the first [Internet Identity Workshop](http://www.internetidentityworkshop.com/)[[t](https://twitter.com/idworkshop)] in Berkeley to discuss "architectural and governance proposals for Internet-wide identity services and their underlying philosophies." -[Announcing IIW 2005](https://identitywoman.net/announcing-the-internet-identity-workshop-iiw2005/)
Since then, the IIW has supported the development of the identity software ecosystem, including [OpenID](http://wiki.openid.net) ('05), OpenID [2.0](http://wiki.openid.net/w/page/12995215/OpenID%20Authentication%202-1)('06), [OAuth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth)('10), [FIDO](https://fidoalliance.org/)('13) and OpenID [Connect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenID_Connect)('14). The heart of the identity developing community seems to have been with empowering users and self sovereign principles. However, the power was still in the hands of large centralized institutions.

The heart of the internet identity community has been with empowering users and self-sovereign principles, since the early days. Only recently, have 'powers-that-be' recognized the virtues of decentralized systems.
* The term Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) began it's conception in 2012[[*1*]](https://www.moxytongue.com/2012/02/what-is-sovereign-source-authority.html) and became widely used in 2014[[*2*]](https://www.tokencommons.org/Windhover-Principles-for-Digital-Identity-Trust-Data.html) ([*early application*](https://hubculture.com/hubs/47/news/689/)).
* [Christopher Allen](http://www.lifewithalacrity.com/)([t](https://twitter.com/ChristopherA))([g](https://github.com/ChristopherA)) does an incredible job detailing the overall history of internet idenitity standards in his seminal work: **[The Path to Self-Soverereign Identity](http://www.lifewithalacrity.com/2016/04/the-path-to-self-soverereign-identity.html)**[[*3*]](https://www.coindesk.com/path-self-sovereign-identity/amp/).
