Assurance

One handy use of 800-63 will be for those of us hoping to meet Silver using 
multi-factor.

The Identity Assurance Profile refers to the min-entropy of secrets, and 
AFAIK 800-63 is where that concept is defined (although it's mighty dense 
material and may need a supplement). Also, keep in mind that there are two 
versions of 800-63: the historical version and a more recent version (which I 
don't think is even final at this point).
