RE: [higgins-dev] I-Cards

["Paul Trevithick" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In the very short term, especially as we get ready for an interop event at the Catalyst show at the end of June we have an emphasis on CardSpace-compatible i-card implementation work. However, URI i-cards are definitely in the plan for 1.0, and considerable design work has already been completed on them. A URI i-card itself holds nothing but a ContextId + SubjectId that are resolveable by IdAS. As for the Deployments page (see [1]) these two i-card providers were missing from the summary table. I’ve added them now.

Subject: [higgins-dev] I-Cards

 

I am trying to understand what I-Cards are under development.

At http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Components#I-Card_Registry_and_I-Card_Providers, as well as the MS CardSpace I-Cards, it lists:
        URI Managed I-Card Provider
        URI Personal I-Card Provider

But at the deployement page(http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Deployments) I can't see any reference to URI I-Cards.

Does that mean that at the moment MS CardSpace is the only I-Card solution?  If not, please could you point me at where the other options are listed?

        Thanks,
                John
