[OpenID] OpenID Information Card

[Prabath Siriwardena]

Hi;

Going through the OpenID Information Card spec  following is my understanding.

In this case we use OpenIDToken instead of SAML Token with the Infocard.

In a normal, OpenID case, once the user enters his OpenID at the
relying party - he will be redirected to the OpenID Provider for
authentication - and also there will be an association between the
OpenID RP and the OpenID Provider. So, in the case of OpenID
Information Card , there will be no direct communication between the
OpenID RP and the OpenID Provider. Is this a correct understanding?

My second question is - with this approach are we losing the Single
Sign-on feature found with normal OpenID case?

Third - we won't be able to use Personal Infocards for this approach?

Appreciate a lot your answers on this.

Thanks & regards.
