Dear OpenID community members:

Today, in Japan, there was a big announcement about OpenID deployment.
It is by the largest Japanese SNS provider, Mixi.

It not only offers OpenID to its users, but also offers the capability to
authenticate/authorize based on someones membership in the friend list or
mixi community.

I have blogged the full story in my blog. : http://www.sakimura.org/en/

I think this is a very encouraging news to the OpenID community.

Cheers, and thanx to Mixi.
