We'd 
be interested in interoping SAML 2 in that time frame.

Any interest in possible SAML interop at RSA 2005?

  

  
Hi 
  folks,

  
 

  
This may seem like quite a ways 
  off, but in mid-Feb, RSA will hold their RSA 2005 conference.  I got mail 
  from Dee Shur at OASIS recently stating that she’d been asked whether we might 
  hold another such event at the next conference.  Dee had also contacted our conference planners about it 
  as well. So I got a call from our conference folks asking whether we would be 
  doing a similar event in Feb since they really need to plan the space, etc. 
  much more in advance than we did the last time.

  
 

  
The 2004 event was a huge success 
  with about a dozen vendors participating with SAML 1.1 solutions and the booth 
  was very well attended.  It was also sponsored by the GSA eGov 
  program.

  
 

  
So… I’d like to hear back from 
  anyone that thinks this would be a good idea and whether they’d be 
  interested.  Feel free to respond on the list or privately if you’d 
  prefer.

  
 

  
Obviously, the first question that 
  comes up is whether we would demo SAML 1.1 again or whether there will be 
  enough SAML 2.0 implementations to demo it instead?  Or perhaps we’d want 
  to figure out how to work both in somehow.  I‘d be interested in your 
  input on these questions.

  
 

  
If you could, our conference 
  planners need an indication of our interest fairly soon.  I’d appreciate 
  hearing back from you in the next week.

  
 

  
Thanks 
  everyone.
