Subject: Re: [saml-dev] Which version to use?
Could you please elaborate what makes Liberty not an option if both specifications are the same except for schema namespaces ? Now speaking of schema namespaces' differences & submission of Liberty work to SAML 2.0 group, I am very much confused. Sometime back I had asked a question to this group titled "Why Liberty if SAML .....?" http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/saml-dev/200409/msg00000.html I got a good answer as to what Liberty has added to SAML 1.1. The thing is that I am not able to understand the existence of two parallel standards and that too when two standard organizations have 90% common companies formulating the specifications. For me (unless I am very wrong) I see the vendors implementing two parallel specs i.e. Liberty-ID-FF-1.2 & SAML 2.0. And for sure will arise an issue of interoperabilty between 2 of them in near future. Please educate me.
