Many European countries as well as others around the world have already endorsed the SAML2-Liberty model as the foundation framework for a new generation of e-government applications. While some countries already deployed the first wave of applications a little more than a year ago, some others are still debating on how to approach the problem. After looking at why e-government requirements are significantly more complex than traditional e-commerce/e-business, we will take examples from different countries' deployments to describe the different waves of identity-aware applications as they move from Federation toward attribute and document exchange.

We'll start from what is currently already or in the process of being deployed, and will close with the expected deployments in the 18 to 36 months time frame, showing how the SAML2/Liberty-IDWSF framework maps to the different classes of use-cases. Finally we will show what's coming next, especially the class of requirements that make social networking and multiple identity per transaction so important for a future generation of e-government applications.
