Berin, there security stuff happening in WS land as well: we're implementing WS-Security, WS-Secure Conversation, WS-Trust and WS-Security Policy .. in both Java and C (and thru the latter for PHP etc.). Once those are done then we can do InfoCard and other stuff that's coming down the pipe (like WS-Federation).
What's the right way to relate those to the new security TLP? Sanjiva.
