Thanks Dave. One man's rant is another man's chant. We've been trying shout to the identity world: "Hey guys, can we make this all a bit easier, please?" We continue to see the carcasses of failed IdM projects, much like a scene from a Mad Max movie. I think the compliance herd mentality will only exacerbate things. Anyways, we're glad to be joining (our ranting with) our identity colleagues in the blogosphere!
