Subject: new mailing list:  idmetasystem-dev
Reply-To: idworkshop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx



I've set up a mailing list (see list description below) for technical
discussion among people intending to implement and deploy stuff that works with the "identity metasystem" as proposed by Microsoft. It is intended to be complementary to the idworkshop discussion. A number of Microsoft
developers are prepared to participate, and I've heard expressions of
interest from many non-MS people too.

(Note for conspiracy theorists:  this was entirely my idea, based on
wanting more info about how all this stuff can/will/should work.)

You can subscribe via

or via email to sympa@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with

    sub idmetasystem-dev FirstName LastName

in the subject line.

List Description :

This list is for discussion of implementations of "Identity Metasystem" components based on the Microsoft proposals. Appropriate topics include:

* technical information about Microsoft's code-named "InfoCard" identity
    selector, and compatible implementations from other providers;

* technical information about implementations of metasystem- supporting Security Token Services from Microsoft and other providers, including use of WS-Trust (and other protocols as appropriate) in those services;

  * use of the metasystem to support diverse token formats;

  * use of authentication methods in metasystem request/response
    operations;

* extensibility of metasystem components in various directions, including
    interoperability considerations;

  * usability and deployability issues with metasystem components.

Topics out of scope include:

  * the nature of "identity";

  * evangelism of competing system or metasystem architectures;

* legal/policy/ethical considerations of metasystem design/ operation.

Membership is unlimited. Moderators reserve the right to cancel postings
deemed inappropriate.
