[OpenID] TransparencyCamp and OpenID (U)

[Dickover, Noel, CTR, NII/DoD-CIO]

UNCLASSIFIED

I just wanted to thank Chris and David and the rest of the OpenID folks who
showed up to TransparencyCamp to talk about using OpenID in govt - this was
the best session I attended out of an absolutely terrific weekend full of
great sessions.  Hopefully we can get the option to use OpenID put in the
Transparency and Open Govt directive.  A question I had, assuming somebody
hasn't already asked it from you - in writing the Directive, how would we
include the use of OpenID and OpenAuth?  We would want to specify the
generalized category that those fit into, but would need to allow for
potential competitor standards that might emerge in the future. 

So if you were writing this, what paragraph would you include that would
specify things like OpenID in order to address the whole privacy issue?  And
again, as we discussed at TransparencyCamp, that would involve two options
for Citizens in participating on Federal sites - to  either use external
servers to register for govt sites, or a single govt server for all govt
websites which might result in better level of service.  And also to have a
plaec to authenticate Federal employees to external sites like Twitter,
which would start to address the problem of others acting as if they were
from govt accounts.

This weekend both Chris Messina and I went to TransparencyCamp in DC and
talked to a bunch of people there about OpenID.  We shot a quick episode of
TheSocialWeb.tv about it:
