CEO Steve Ballmer today announced a series of measures to enhance product interoperability, including the development of new specifications that enable Web single sign-on (SSO) between systems that use Liberty and WS-* Web service architectures.
The very last contract I took at Microsoft was with the Passport team which, I'm assuming, will probably become fairly transparent with the Libery Alliance offerings. I don't know any technical details but I'm guessing that Eve Maler might have some extended information in this regards as its my understanding that she has something to do with Sun's connection with the Liberty Alliance. As such it seems we probably have Yet One More Reason to be thankful to Eve for all that she has done to help bring sanity to the insane world of software development and standards.
As always, Thanks Eve!

You’re so kind to say such things — in reality, a whole bunch of people at both Sun and Microsoft worked really hard to get to this point. On the Sun side, I worked with folks like Pat Patterson, Emily Xu, Bill Smith, Rajeev Angal, Dan Dinhoble, and a ton of others. (I am indeed involved in the Liberty Alliance on Sun’s behalf, and also in the SAML committee as OASIS.)
Hi Eve,
Thanks for taking the time to add a comment :)
Without a doubt I am sure that a lot of people need to be properly given credit for the work they have done. I will make sure I point out your comment to ensure that your co-workers at Sun are given proper credit as well.
Do you happen to know who or where I can point to to find out those in whom should be given the spotlight at MS?
Thanks again!
<M:D/>
