An Identity Selector and the associated identity system components allow users to manage their Digital Identities from different Identity Providers, and employ them in various contexts to access online services. In this specification, identities are represented to users as “Information Cards”. Information Cards can be used both at applications hosted on Web sites accessed through Web browsers and rich client applications directly employing Web services. This specification also provides a related mechanism to describe security-verifiable identity for endpoints by leveraging extensibility of the WS-Addressing specification. This is achieved via XML elements for identity provided as part of WS-Addressing Endpoint References. This mechanism enables messaging systems to support multiple trust models across networks that include processing nodes such as endpoint managers, firewalls, and gateways in a transport-neutral manner. (e) A statement regarding the relationship of this specification to similar work of other OASIS TCs or other standards developing organizations: This specification does not replace or supersede other work. This specification is related to these specification: · OASIS Standard WS-Trust 1.3 and 1.4 · OASIS Standard WS-SecurityPolicy 1.2 and 1.3 · W3C Recommendation WS-Addressing 1.0 (f) Certification by at least three OASIS member organizations that they are successfully using the specification: · CA: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00007.html · Cordance: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00005.html · IBM: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00003.html · Microsoft: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200904/msg00049.html · Novell: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/imi/200905/msg00018.html (g) The beginning and ending dates of the public review(s), a pointer to the announcement of the public review(s), and a pointer to an account of each of the comments/issues raised during the public review period(s), along with its resolution: The Identity Metasystem Interoperability Version 1.0 specification was in Public Review from 26 February 2009 through 27 April 2009. http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200902/msg00008.html The TC resolved that none of the edits since the Public Review constituted substantive changes.
