There is actually one feature sreg has that AX doesn't: privacy policy URL of the RP. <div><br></div><div>Yes, AX is "superior" in most respects, but as a result it is vastly more complex to support and use. Since most Providers are barely willing to disclose a user's email a few more basic bits that sreg covers, there's been no compelling reason to switch to AX yet. Especially since no one at all supports the "push" half of the extension.</div>

I've been Googling on this for two days, but can't figure it out...<div>
