The Microsoft Marketing Machine: the schema name change of the claims

So we go from schemas.microsoft.com to schemas.xmlsoap.org. Looks nice and "open". Too bad the domain belongs to Microsoft. LOL.

The Microsoft Marketing Machine: the schema name change of the claims

    No worries, I know you've been busy especially with the .NET 3.0 RTM this week.

    It would just seem more transparent and have the feel of a more open standard if the domain belonged to W3C. Mind you W3C.org comes up with a private registration. Maybe Microsoft owns it too, LOL.

    BTW, congrats on the RTM!

    Sorry about the late response.

    Quick Check of WHOIS:

    Registrant Name:Microsoft Corporation
    Registrant Organization:Microsoft Corporation
    Registrant Street1:One Microsoft Way
    Registrant Street2:
    Registrant Street3:
    Registrant City:Redmond
    Registrant State/Province:WA
    Registrant Postal Code:98052
    Registrant Country:US
    Registrant Phone:+1.4258828080

    Yep. Is that really a problem

    I'm not sure what you intended to say there, other than that Microsoft owns the XMLSOAP.org domain.
