Does Windows Identity Foundation have support for Lightweight Web Services Security Profile?

Answer 2

Lightweight Web Services Security Profile (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd357239(v=prot.10).aspx) is implemented by Windows Web Services (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd430435(v=vs.85).aspx). We are tryibng to write interoperability layer between managed WIF based applications and native WWS based application. We are running in a lot of issues and almost have to wrtie RSTR ourselves.

So, my question should have been: can WIF consume LWSSP-compliant RST and produce LWSSP-compliant RSTR?
