Assurances in Identity

For those of you waiting to get the features available in PowerShell 2.0 (originally released with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2), your time has come. Microsoft has just released the Windows Management Framework, which includes: Windows PowerShell 2.0 Windows Remote Management (WinRM) 2.0 Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) 4.0 Lots of good stuff in there, so go take a look! Windows Management Framework on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008

You may not have noticed this in my previous posting, but ADFS 2.0 (formerly known as 'Geneva') has passed the Liberty Alliance SAML 2.0 Interoperability Testing, which means ADFS 2.0 can interoperate with heterogeneous environments and provide federation. You can find more information on the 'Geneva' Team Blog and on the Liberty Alliance Project site .
