This needs no further information but remember outing not only shows a lack of trust but can affect a persons employment, relationships, family,... the list goes on and on. The general rule is, if the person says it is ok to talk about their transition with others that is one thing, if not then don't.
Above is just one of several tips for those who want to be a trans ally. Oh I wish I could have shown this to a woman I met today who violates virtually all of these tips but feels that she is, indeed, an ally.
Katherine's Tips For Being a Trans Ally, is really well thought out and a good read.
