This page gathers information about implementation efforts and interest, along with interoperability testing plans. We have a goal to develop a hosted validator that can exercise implementors' AM, Host, Requester, and User Agent endpoints to increase interoperability, roughly in the March timeframe. To this end, we have secured a commitment from the Kantara Initiative to encourage validator development by offering a bounty (details to be announced).
Maciej Machulak is the UMA group's implementation coordinator. Several efforts are gearing up in earnest now.
Interest and effort mentioned so far (no obligation implied!):

Notes |
| Iain/Mydex |
 |
|
|
|
Expressed interest in doing an UMA-compliant implementation. Currently the Mydex work is built on ID-WSF and information cards. |
| Paul/OpenSSO |
|
|
|
|
As an OpenSSO architect, has been preparing to do a complete "reference" implementation that may be suitable as a code base for productized efforts. The Host will use a filter-based approach, to make it easy to "wrap" existing web apps to support AM and Requester interactions. |
| Christian |

|
|
|
Has expressed interest in working on an implementation related to distributed social networking use cases. |
| Maciej/Newcastle |
|
|
|
|
Has expressed an interest in coding, with a preference for working in Java – possibly working with Paul. |
| Hasan/Fraunhofer |
|
|
|
|
Has expressed an interest in doing a C# implementation, possibly in league with Andrew Arnott. |
| Peter/Neustar |
|
 |
|
|
He is working on a mobile-based AM prototype, likely to be ready for testing by the July timeframe. |
