Abstract: In this note we clarify the relation between extended world-sheet supersymmetry and generalized complex structure. The analysis is based on the phase space description of a wide class of sigma models. We point out the natural isomorphism between the group of orthogonal automorphisms of the Courant bracket and the group of local canonical transformations of the cotangent bundle of the loop space. Indeed this fact explains the natural relation between the world-sheet and the geometry of T+T^*. We discuss D-branes in this perspective.
