  • A (fiscal) year in review

    It's that time of the year again: the end of June marks the end of the fiscal year, and for us it's time to reflect on what we've done in the past 12 months. Vast majority of the things I've done are internal-only or with high profile customers that can't be mentioned publicly until their PR departments give the green light, hence I won't discuss those here; however I think it's interesting to share with you a summary of some of the things that I worked on, just to give you a measure of how .NET3.0 (especially CardSpace in my case) is relevant. It should give you an hint of how much impact you can have working in my group, so you'll be able to put announcements like this in the right perspective! I also hope that this will boost your confidence that the content of our upcoming book is based on very solid real world experience, earned by working daily with our key accounts in the identity space: the PG intent is tempered by immersing it in requirements from customer actually shipping solutions based on this thing that we call CardSpace. Which, by the way, is the reason for which I'm still at the computer at this time... big stuff is going on in cardspaceland! Projects, Briefings, Deep Dives This year I've worked with or briefed more than 45 enterprise companies on CardSpace/WCF/WF, good part of it at the very top of the fortune100 and global100 (ah, btw: just subscribed to Fortune. I was buying it all the times anyway). Sometimes it was just a 2 hours personalized QA, some other Read More...
  • Silverlight [WPF/E] and Windows CardSpace or plugging RIA in the Identity Metasystem

    [Edit: Added Silverlight SxS con WPF/E] In short: this is a tutorial on invoking Cardspace from a Sliverlight [WPF/E] control and how to use Silverlight [WPF/E] for showing data from a token . So easy that a long haired architect can do it :-) Silverlight [WPF/E] is Microsoft's technology for developing rich internet applications, but it is also going to be CROSS PLATFORM ( the CTP it is already available for Mac ). In light of the awesome work of the Bandit guys on an identity selector on other platforms , I believe it is important to start thinking about how to use this new RIA technology together with identity. In recent times I'm hearing more and more people interested in Rich Internet Applications, or RIA. That usually brings the discussion pretty quickly on Silverlight [WPF/E], our cross platform presentation technology that leverages a subset of XAML for doing cool things inside your browser. I am often asked how to plug CardSpace into it, so I thought to put toghether a post that shows how to do that. As you know it's few years that I am a server guy, so I don't spend too much time on colorful stuff: however I also like to cross pollinate different technologies, and I especially love to do it with CardSpace (I did it with WPF , with WF , with WCF and WPF ). Yesterday night I downloaded the WPF/E SDK , the WPF/E runtime for Windows and blocked 1 hour on the calendar of my excellent colleague Laurence Moroney , probably the best mentor I could get for ramping up super fast Read More...
