| [higgins-dev] Higgins, OpenID, YADIS call at 8:00 EDT - Proposed agenda |
|
Dial in number for tonight’s call:
There have been lots of side emails going back and
forth on the subject of Higgins support for OpenID and/or for all of YADIS. In addition to Higgins’ general interest in
having plug-ins for as many identity management systems as possible, there is
also the practical issue of needing a short term way to authenticate to an RCP
app given the recent announcement of a delay in the release of generalized JAAS
framework for Equinox/Eclipse. There are also people working on demonstrations
for a conference at Harvard. Since time and resources are always limited, and we
want to minimize redundant efforts, it has been suggested that we have a call
among the interested parties to discuss the issues. Discussion topics 0)
