[OpenID] Logging in problem

Since voting requires membership, and membership requires an openid (and the Foundation relying on it), can folks disclose what the Foundation services' configuration(s) is/are for https openids, please.


Are there perfectly legitimate consumer CAs out there which cannot be used with a UCI-based openid = membership = vote, because of the configuration?

What is the list (if any) of CAs that may be used for vote registration (ie. Membership), if one a subscriber chooses an https  OpenID?

What is the list (if any) of CAs that may be used for vote casting, if a member chooses an https  OpenID?

Is there any difference in the list, and how is the lists(s) being decided?

Can one registered multiple openids with the member profile (like Plaxo allow, analogously)?

Is there a policy of controlling changes to the CA lists(s) between registration and voting? For example, could voting using the member-registered OpenID fail, if the CA falls off the authorized list before voting day, or the cert expires, or its own authority's CRL posts a suspended status?
