I've been reading about the new auth stuff in the upcoming versions of ASP.net: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdev/archive/2013/06/27/introducing-asp-net-identity-membership-system-for-asp-net-applications.aspx
I'm creating a new ASP.net MVC 4 project in visual studio 2012 and I'd like to use the new auth bits if I can. Is this possible?

You will also have to remove/turn off all of the old membership/forms auth in your app, and switch to using the new identity APIs.
