Selectors, agents, and Barcelona
In the interest of reducing confusion in the press and in the minds of folks new to user-centric identity, it would be better if we all used the same term for roughly the same thing. What we in the Higgins and other tech contexts call an identity agent is in the same ballpark as what Microsoft and others call a identity selector. So I’ve done a global search and replace on the Higgins and OSIS wikis. Everything now says “identity selector.” And in the long run people will probably just say “selector” just as “web browser” eventually became “browser.” This change will help folks understand what’s going on at next week’s interop event in Barcelona at Catalyst. Wish I could be there along with all of my friends and colleagues. Should be fun. Hope this helps.
