Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 21:33, 18 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Identity Lifecycle Manager → Forefront Identity Manager — The ILM product is known known as FIM, so this page should be renamed to Forefront Identity Manager. I don't believe they require separate articles, as the functionality and purpose is approximately the same, just evolved. FIM was known as "ILM 2" during development, but was renamed to fit in with the Forefront suite. Gerard^talk 02:34, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MIM the successor to FIM[edit]

It would be handy if the Infobox template for software (Template:Infobox_software) included a succeeded_by parameter just like the Template:Infobox_OS does. Then we could indicate in a tidy manner that Microsoft replaced the FIM product line with the "Identity Manager" product line. {{Infobox software ... | succeeded_by = Identity Manager 2016^[1] ...
