| The code that can understand the policy, generate a token and consume a
| token will all be open source and available as libraries through the
| Higgins process once the IP review process is complete. The commercial
| side will come when IBM's identity management products like Tivoli
| add support for creating and managing the x509 certificates and
| tokens that provide identity mixer claims.

| that will work across any Windows application. Eventually,
| Microsoft hopes to expand beyond Windows applications into
| adoption by banks, credit cards and online retailers. CardSpace
| comes including in Vista, Microsoft's new operating system.

Eclipse Community Survey of 2007 Results

| Organizations are using Eclipse for cross-platform development and
| deployment. On average they have 2.1 development platforms and 2.7 deployment
| platforms for software build using Eclipse. Windows is the most popular
| development platform, with 74% of organizations choosing Windows as their
| primary development platform, followed by Linux at 20%. However, for primary
| deployment platforms, Linux is well represented at 37%, compared with 47% on
