Hi Dave,
I would really appreciate your review of the SDSS since I have reviewed your
"federated PIDS" paper and know that this is one of your areas of interest. Althought
separation of PIDS and COAS is part of the OMG's specification, I think SDSS is
substantially different and can potentially enhance the security of federated PIDS.
Hopefully, you will come to the conclusion that the difference is more than that which
separates "one-click" from prior-art in that infamous Amazon patent.
Regardless, I look forward to comparing notes with the prior art that you are
willing to specify.
Thanks,
Andrew
