From OpenLiberty.org Wiki
The openLiberty effort was established to provide easy access to tools and information that can be used to jump start the development of more secure and privacy-respecting identity-based applications based on Liberty Federation and Liberty Web Services standards. This wiki is part of the openliberty.org portal because so much of this community project requires broad participation and a tool that can handle the collaborative nature of this project.

ID-WSF 2.0 Web Services Client Library (ClientLib)
An open source implementation of the Web Services Client role for the ID-WSF 2.0 ecosystem.
As of February 25th 2008 the ClientLib is officially released as BETA code. Over the next few months we'll be writing more code and doing some interoperability testing. The ClientLib includes support for ID-WSF Authentication Service (PLAIN and CRAM-MD5), Discovery Service, a non-standard Profile Service, and Directory Access Protocol Service (ID-DAP). Both signed and unsigned messaging is supported. The Data Services Template (DST 2.1) is mostly complete. The DST 2.1 reference implementation is mostly complete. People Service is partially complete.

Identity Governance Framework (IGF)
The Identity Governance Framework is about the secure and appropriate exchange of identity-related information between users and applications and service providers (both internal and external) is the basis of providing deeper and richer functionality for services oriented architecture.
Sensitive identity-related data such as addresses, social security numbers, bank account numbers and employment details are increasingly the target of legal, regulatory and enterprise policy. These include,but are not limited to: the European Data Protection Initiative, Sarbanes-Oxley, and Gramm-Leach-Bliley as examples.
The Id Governance initiative assists entities managing identity data with increased transparency and demonstrable compliance with respect to policies for identity-related data. It would allow corporations to answer questions such as: Under what conditions may user social security numbers be accessed by applications? Which applications had access to customer account numbers on January 27, 2007?
Identity Landscape
A map of existing technologies with a goal of finding a unifying mechanism to characterize these technologies and systems, and discuss social, regulatory and business aspects of them. In addition, known open source projects and commercial products that are relevant in the identity landscape are listed here.
Other Contributers and Future Submissions
There are a few Participants who will soon be contributing code to the project. We are listing links to those projects in this section of the Wiki Home Page because we have gotten a few inquiries about pre-existing code and how it might be incorporated into the openLiberty-ClientLib project.
Caveat... source listed here may not be incorporated into the openLiberty-ClientLib project. That decision will be made by the contributing Participants.
Note: Please provide your name, the name of your project, some brief description, and a URL to your code.

Firefox ECP Plugin
An enhanced client or proxy (ECP) is a system entity that knows how to contact an appropriate identity provider, possibly in a context-dependent fashion, and also supports the Reverse SOAP (PAOS) binding [SAMLBind].
