is anyone familiar with microsoft's "Office Pro Plus"

[Curry, Warren]

YUP...  , we have problems here at Florida with this as well.    We are in a Net + project that has a net+ vendor that does not seem to care about the federation model we work hard to move forward.  

We have had to create an alternate login separate from the Shibboleth.    I would like to see pressure brought on this vendor to provide service so that the InCommon federation model could be used.

It is like Lync in that is uses WS-Trust not WS-Fed, so I think that means no shibb interop.

When I spoke to Msft at EDUCAUSE, they seemed certain about it not working with shibb.
