I just got done going through the implementation guide and technet articles
to hook our shibb idp up against our Office 365 domain. And while its great
to have SSO against the web portal/web apps, I've understood we don't have
parity between SAML and WS Fed in all aspects of O365, but heard several
times to expect that to occur in "late 2014". Specifically what I'm curious
about is the the ProPlus licensing activation for the desktop apps and the
Lync desktop client. Does anyone know more about this? I know with adding
ECP we pick up the Outlook desktop client and mobile clients... Does anyone
know if the future solution for the desktop apps and client client will
require ECP or be something else?

Thanks,
-Rob
