I-Card Interface

The following is an incomplete/rough set of proposed methods. We need to add to the list and sort them into the following separate interfaces:

• the base interface (ICard),
• an interface for CardSpace i-cards (ICardSpaceCard)
• an interface for RSS-P i-cards (IRSSCard)
• an interface for ScreenScrape&FormFill i-cards (ISSFFCard)
• an interface for OpenID-H i-cards (IOpenIDCard)
