JANET is currently initiating standards work to take federated identity management to applications beyond the web such as e-mail, instant messaging, file sharing, or remote computing.
The initial phase of the Moonshot project proposes to combine three key security technologies to achieve simplified sign-on, and to build a test-bed for extending the benefits of federated identity management to these applications.
For further information, please go to:

On the page “JANET launches ‘Project Moonshot’” there is a link for further information thus;
http://www.ja.net/development/middleware/moonshot/beyond-sso.html
Which is obviously broken as it goes to a 404 ‘page not found’ message.
The link you are talking about – (http://www.project-moonshot.org) is back up and running now – thanks for making us aware of this.
