Microsoft has launched four new open source projects designed to implement information cards in a variety of formats, including Java, Tomcat (for IBM WebSphere servers), Ruby on Rails, PHP and a generic C library. It is expected that the results of these efforts will complement the ability of the Windows CardSpace identity-management system to support information cards.

The new projects will be hosted on two open source project sites: SourceForge and RubyForge. They’ll also be aggregated at codeplex.com, Microsoft’s collaborative development portal. more
