Discussion notes, key understandings, outstanding questions, observations, and, if appropriate to this discussion: action items, next steps:

Tom Raney discussed the nuts-and-bolts sequence of steps to integrate with the Backplane 2 protocol. Vlad Skvortsov from Echo talked about the history of Backplane and its creation from the need to alert JavaScript applications in a browser context of identity login events. Echo and Janrain chose to create and maintain the Backplane specification as an open standard to promote growth of the Backplane eco-system.

Janrain released their implementation of the specification as open source software earlier in the week. See https://github.com/janrain/janrain-backplane-2 and http://developers.janrain.com/documentation/backplane-protocol/.

All specifications and further details about the Backplane community are maintained at http://backplanex.com.
