<div>Jorgen, I'd love to also hear Microsoft's thoughts on what you have learned from operating Windows Live ID in terms of user experience and functionality. You called out one specific feature OpenID lacks in comparison to Live ID:</div>
<blockquote class="webkit-indent-blockquote" style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; "><font color="#444444"><font size="2"><font face="Tahoma, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size: 10pt; ">OpenID does not support a network sign-out function as part of its protocol, which can mean that users are left in a state that differs from what they might assume. For example, Windows Live ID users who sign out of an OpenID site might expect to be completely signed out of their account, because that is what happens on all other Windows Live ID-enabled sites.</span></font></font></font></span></blockquote>
<div>Are there any other things we should be learning from your experience Live ID? Yahoo educated us about many interesting things they learned operating BBAuth for federated login.</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<p>FYI, the Live ID Team has posted a blog post giving a status
update on the Live ID OpenID Provider Community Tech Preview and some of the lessons
learned (particularly around UI / user experience) which you guys may find of
interest.</p>

<p>I bet you all thought we had forgotten about this stuff ;-),
but we are actively working on the production OP release for Live ID users.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Unfortunately I cannot publicly share any specific schedule
details at this stage. Stay tuned though :)</p>
