How would a developer use WIF, ADFS V2, and Windows Live ID with Access Control?
Access Control, WIF, and AD FS v2 can be used together to develop web services that combine the security and capability of Active Directory with the flexibility and control of custom access control rules, within a simple, closely integrated developer experience. Access Control allows developers to manage access to RESTful web services using a cloud-based service. Active Directory Federation Services 2.0 can federate with ACS, so users in Active Directory can be granted access to these RESTful web services. At PDC 2009, there will be community samples that demonstrate how to use WIF and Geneva Server with ACS. WIF will be used to acquire a SAML token from Geneva Server and to extract the claims from an Access Control-issued token. Note that extracting claims from an Access Control-issued token will require custom extensions to WIF. The WIF and ADFS teams are currently investigating native support for this type of token in the future versions of both WIF and ADFS. At PDC 2009, there will
