ID-WSF

<h2 id="development">Development</h2>
<p>The ID-WSF stack was developed by the <a href="/facts/Liberty_Alliance/vhWKxpro">Liberty Alliance</a>. The first release, ID-WSF 1.0 (and subsequent 1.1 and 1.2) were
released in 2003. ID-WSF1 was interoperability tested<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:1" href="#fn:1"><sup>1</sup></a> among
several vendor implementations, which received certification from the Liberty Alliance.
</p><p>However, the first version of ID-WSF was not widely adopted. Perhaps the only significant adoption was by <a href="/facts/France_Telecom/V5MqNPmG">France Telecom</a>
and the French government's Mon Service Public. Some adoption happened in Japan as well. Liberty Alliance proceeded
to create an improved version, the ID-WSF 2.0 in 2006, which included harmonization with certain WS-* technologies,
such as <a href="/facts/WS-Addressing/LQdkuBmd">WS-Addressing</a> and <a href="/facts/WS-Security/T7v5kCJt">WS-Security</a>. These changes were vigorously, and successfully, lobbied by Conor Cahill
of <a href="/facts/AOL/MAbT38QS">AOL</a> (at the time). ID-WSF 2.0 interoperability certification was participated by several major league vendors, as well
as by startups and open source projects.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2"><sup>2</sup></a>
</p><p>Since then, ID-WSF 2.0 has become the only widely accepted interoperable profile of WS-* technologies. Its strength
is essentially in narrow focus where tight enough profile for interoperability was specified. ID-WSF 2.0 interoperability
certification by Liberty Alliance was accomplished by several vendors, including some open source.
</p><p>ID-WSF 2.0 has been adopted as standards base by the Finnish e-government project and by the European Commission FP7 project TAS3.
