<p>Perfect! Well, I asked Recordon about this over a month ago and I'm still
not clear on what the official policy is! I googled for "OpenID
workgroup" and came up empty; worse, I checked out <a

either.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>It's more than just request -> response. It's also an intriguing
model for information resolution, where the trust is centralized, but
then delegated out.<br>
<br>
Why shouldn't it be used for identity resolution as well? An identity
(even more so from a computer's perspective) is merely a small set of data with
a chain of trust - just like most DNS lookups.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>I was not suggesting that you should put your physical address or<br>
telephone number in DNS, just that you can publish in DNS information<br>
about how that information might be obtained, much as you publish on<br>
your web site how that information might be obtained.<br>
<br>
I'd also like to point out that HTTP URLs are themselves dependent on<br>
DNS. All you gain by publishing this information over HTTP rather than<br>
DNS is a couple more layers of indirection. I can't control my identity<br>
page on MyOpenID any more than I can control the contents of the<br>
<a href="http://myopenid.com" target="_blank">myopenid.com</a> DNS zone.<br>
<br>
Additionally, since DNS is a request->response protocol just like HTTP,<br>
there's no technical reason why you can't log requests and refuse to<br>
talk to certain clients if you wish. The domain name system is not magic.<o:p></o:p></p>
