SAML remains open, securing XML security

"In a recent announcement, Sun Microsystems Inc. sought to reassure developers that it would never seek to assert ownership or patent rights on work the company had done in connection with the Security Assertion Markup Language, or SAML. As this is the focus of a set of specifications under development in an OASIS Security Services technical committee, this announcement comes as something of a relief to a developer community that had been holding its collective breath and hoping for an outcome that would prevent either legal exposure or potential liability for patent infringement rights to those who have already invested substantially in SAML-related tools and technologies."
