Give Me Liberty or Give Me Derth

Liberty Alliance Project - White Papers

Propagandizing aside (the link between Liberty and Identity is a subject for humanities, not technology), watch this space for developments in Web Services frameworks. The Liberty Alliance is a colloborative working group established for the purpose of creating and marketing an industry standard for identity sharing user identities between disparate systems (in the form of web services). Its members include American Express, France Telecom, Sun, IBM and more. What's more, is that it is an open (more or less) standard that competes with the likes of MS Passport and other such proprietary methods which of course begin to benefit users less as their popularity grows.
