That being said, adoption would be a much easier proposition if RPs hard better tools to identify the user's preferred IDP (or set of IDPs). We should seriously think about more direct broking of user IDP preferences via XRD discovery and/or a centralized service (which could be distributed among different organizations such as DNS to avoid over-reliance on a single player).<br>

And a good fact it is. promoting the OpenID technology brand to<br>
end-users is inappropriate; if OpenID is successful the OpenID brand<br>
will disappear like the vanilla flavor in strawberry ice cream.<br>
