SAML and .NET?

[Bob]

I'm doing a scoping study for a Single-Sign-On integration project with a
client. The client's SSO interface is built on SAML 1.1 specification using
Verisign TSIK, and needless to say, they have a java environment. We are
100% .NET. I was surprised that I couldn't find any resources on
implementing SAML in .NET, given that SAML uses pretty much the same
technology as Microsoft does in its WSE. Has anyone done this? Any help or
pointing me to some resources is appreciated.

You might want to get in touch with Michele Leroux Bustamante. In a blog
entry at http://www.dasblonde.net/PermaLink.a...5-9cd0190421af
she says: "SAML will be supported, because WSE is extensible. Actually, Benjamin
Mitchell and I worked on a SAML sample for our interoperability demonstration
with Axis/SourceID.so we kinda already have a start on that!"

So she might have an actual SAML implementation in .NET... worth dropping
her a line to discuss it further...
