[Opensim-dev] Proposal for using OpenID in OpenSim

My understanding is that, like OpenID is currently used on the web,
which is you could use OpenID if you have one, or the old-fashion type
if you don't.

However, with OpenID > 1.0, it is possible to add attributes, so OpenID
in OpenSim is a means of avatar portability, since one of the attributes
would be a URL to where your avatar can be found.

That can't be done the old fashioned way.

What specifically is your concern about OpenID?

Cheers,
