broker app

Initial hosting will be on broker.parityinc.net machine (hosted SuSe Linux machine). Responsibilities:

1. Automatically creates an account for the user when HBX first starts up.
2. We will have pre-created three "master" i-card (Contexts) (see Context Instances). These master i-cards are displayed in a vertical rail at the left.
   
3. When you select an i-card at the left, the user (on the right hand side) can edit the contents of their profile within that i-card
   

Identity Selector Service

Web services API to support HBX demo

1. Works with HBX to auto-generate user account on the broker
2. After HBX detects RSS-P tag in web page finds appropriate i-card (with associated RSS feed) to return to HBX that HBX in turn will post to relying website.
   
3. If there is time: UI support web services that enable the user to pick from among a set of visual i-cards displayed in HBX/browser

Now renamed "IdAS" this is the original org.eclipse.higgins core code code running on the broker.parityinc.net server. [Uses the new Eclipse 3.2-version OSGI servlet bridge technology].

RSSContext

1. Implements publishing via RSS of "current" user's profile data.
2. Converts DigitalSubject properties to RSS (XML) items.
