"Project Higgins”: a new open source initiative

IBM, Novell and Parity Communications announced that they are contributing code to an open source initiative -- code-named "Project Higgins” -- that will spawn a new generation of security software, giving people more control over their personal online identity information. Project Higgins builds upon a concept developed by Harvard Law School’s Berkman Center for Internet & Society by John Clippinger and Paul Trevithick.

“The Internet has changed the way consumers think about privacy, and Higgins will help change the way people manage their personal identity information”

Dale Olds,Engineer at Novell.
