<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>One thing I'd find interesting
for you to discuss is OpenID behind an enterprise's firewall. The use
case here grows out of the number of new collaborative tools which have grown
from the Internet and are now being used within enterprises. Today, each
application requires the IT department become involved and integrate directly
with Active Directory, Novell Netware, etc. Instead, by having an OpenID
Provider setup within the firewall, which integrates with the company's
directory, it becomes much easier to deploy additional tools. Each new
tool would then just whitelist a pattern for allowed OpenID's from the internal
provider. That make sense?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
