At my WCF Security talk at TechEd, I showed an example of a WCF service that accepts IssuedToken credentials (effectively a SAML token issued by a security token service). The easiest way to demo this today is using Windows CardSpace (or WCS, formerly known as InfoCard), so I ended up talking a bit about WCS. And after my talk, the vast majority of questions were about WCS, which is great!
One question that came up that morning (and always comes up) was about cross-platform support for CardSpace. Will the Mac have an identity selector? Will Linux? Can I write a relying party in Java? Can I do single sign on with InfoCard, or must I select a card for each application I visit?
The last two questions are answered by a demo that Ping Identity is giving this week at Catalyst 2006 (via Kim). I've not seen any concrete statements about Mac and Linux identity selectors yet though.
