Looks like we have to submit some kind of comment by this Friday.



OpenID mentioned as "Phishing Heaven" is not good.



Don, could you get in touch with them to fix those paragraphs?



I will try to send my personal comments as well.



Here is the problematic sentence:



As a server-side solution, OpenID and successor technologies have the
advantage of only relying on server-side HTTP redirects, and so in general
works independent of browsers. Very seriously, OpenID 2.0 Authentication
does not require relying parties to validate, and so has been
described as phishing
heaven <http://www.links.org/?p=187>, since it allows any OpenID-enabled
site to redirect a user to a fake OpenID provider, that then steals the
user's credentials.

I just stumbled upon this document "Final Report - Social Web XG Wiki "

Perhaps we should locate a volunteer to help them write more
accurately about OpenID?
