Summary of interactions between Liberty Alliance and SSTC concerning LA 1.1

On several occassions I 
have been asked to clarify status of LA 1.1 specs and

the SSTC. In some cases, 
there has even been some misunderstanding about the

relationship between 
Liberty Alliance and the SSTC. I have pulled together all of 
the

key e-mails that describe 
the interactions between the two bodies. I will publish

these under a SAML 2.0 
heading on our web site.
