Jim,
Policies have
changed, there have been misunderstandings, lack of clarity, etc. and I’d
rather not rehash all of that here in public. You have good reason for “not
getting it.” In retrospect the LDAP CP code (and the I-Card Manager code)
was mishandled. I’d rather not dwell on the past. Mary and I have confidence
that things will be much better from here on.
HTH,
-Paul
WRT the Token
Service, as Mike McIntosh has just said, he did have to go through a process to
contribute the STS code, because his situation is different from the LDAP CP.

- STS up and running
Why was Mike able
to check in the STS code? I assumed that we could check in newly authored
code whether or not it has dependencies on third-party libraries. I
thought the issue had only to do with the redistribution of the third-party
libraries
I mean, how is it
different from someone adding a method to IdAS which requires some third-party
jar file and telling people they'll need to manually grab that jar until we get
the IP issues ironed out?

We've been on the phone this morning with Eclipse asking for acceleration on
this (and for the I-Card Manager code). This should be resolved very soon.
Stay tuned.
