Subject: RE: [security-services] goal statement thread
Eve, Your re-spin works for me except for: This support will be based on the Liberty >>Alliance ID-FF >>V1.1 [and V1.2?] specifications that were contributed to the TC. I believe this should read ID-FF V1.1 and V1.2 specifications. The former has been submitted to the TC and the latter has been requested from the Liberty Alliance Organization. >>-----Original Message----- >>From: Eve L.
