Bye Geneva Framework, hello Windows Identity Foundation

The official name of the “geneva” framework is Windows Identity Foundation.

I already wrote a post about name changes for the entire Geneva lineup, but I think it’s important to surface the introduction of Windows Identity Foundation directly in its own title so that it stands out in the aggregated feeds. This is a Big Deal for developers on the .NET platform, and I want to make sure to give it as much visibility as I can. We claims tinkerers are now recognized first class citizens in .NET, and it feels good ;-)
