Using CardSpace in public places?

Hello,

I've been looking at CardSpace for a while and haven't run across anything that explicitly discusses its use in public places. Are there any plans for using these cards at work, school, etc. without having to recreate the card (or copy it via email or a flash drive)? And more importantly, will there be a secure way to do this, possibly a one-time usage?

Thanks,
Brian

In version 1, there is no explicit support for this. Currently, you can export and import cards in and out of CardSpace, but there is no implicit roaming scenario yet.

There are many things in design right now that will address this, as obviously, it's of critical importance.

Thanks. Is there any ongoing public discussion or information about how roaming will be addressed?

As a matter of fact, maybe.
