Hi All,<br>
<br>
Last year I was subscribed to this and some other mailing lists at
OpenID. Some progress has been made since last year and my thoughts on
this subject are here: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://blog.startcom.org/?p=20">https://blog.startcom.org/?p=20</a><br>
However it seems to me, that after browsing through the archive for a
while, that the same issues (I raised last year already) seem to come
up again and again at this forum: That of trust and security. We've
been through all these discussions already various times...with no
results! But it also seems to me, that there are people willing to
offer ideas and solutions, about how to allow relying parties to trust
and actually rely on OpenID providers. (I wonder why the OpenID
Foundation and its members refrain from addressing this critical issue!
Is it on purpose and by design? I think there are many on this list who
would like get an answer on this from one of the board members.)<br>
<br>
Nevertheless, since the OpenID framework is open and can be extended to
solve the problems in question, the interested participants and parties
might try to solve them without waiting for anybody...ideas,
suggestions?<br>
