[OpenID] Question About OpenID

[Andrew Arnott]

I think what you're looking for is what OpenID calls delegation.  Delegation
includes the ability to take several OpenIDs issued by several providers and
tie them into just one identifier that you can always use, even as your set
of Providers change.

I have a couple of blog posts that tell you how to do it:
