Pbwiki folk have been always polite. When it works, im open to revisiting the opportunities. Wiki services seem an ideal adjunct to the committee management functions we built ourselves (and pbwiki seems excellent at wiki)). It should be cheaper per user to integrate te sites via wesso/openid, than build/operate stuff ourselves. This is what we do with 10 other websso sites, already. The model works!

The https issue is critical for business. As you know, terms and conditions are legaly imposed, via https.

I don't really care about cacert ca: its just a forcing function so sps adopt the customers ctl and a collection of sps can orcestrate the same reliance (on the same ctl) so our business mashup of sp sites (one per tab) is consistent.

If we could help pbwiki recognize and fix the protocol issues, I think they are pretty close to ready. Then, there is just the point of ensuring they support the same CAs as does the foundation (or any other customer of theirs): so 1) users are not "denied" at one foundation service, while "accepted" at another and 2) are denied at pbwiki for all cas where they were denied access (for reason of ca) at the voting site.


Agreed! Therefore I suggest that the foundation removes the CA certificates of cacert from the foundation server in order to be in sync with the wiki. I'm not aware of any policy adopted by OpenID, but if you so badly insist on the principal above, than this is what should be done then. So much fuss about nothing, you could simply ask PKwiki instead (maybe they denied your request previously, who knows?).
