Microsoft plans link between directory, Live services
Microsoft plans link between directory, Live services: "
Technically a good idea. Fewer namespaces and fewer administration models. Reality is, customers are loathe to get roped into Msft centrism. Msft has yet to make the cut to OS inpdependent Internet services.

The open source community isn't much better. Politics is winning over common sense.
