[legal] OpenID and Patent... ?

[Snorri]

Hello,

 

I was yesterday in meeting with an important European TELCO interested in
the next months to test OpenID (OP and RP) directly on the mobile phone.
This is very exciting.

 

But they questioned me about one "OpenID Patent", I was very surprised!

In fact it was a confusion with this patent:

I appreciate to read your technical opinion (maybe David?) about the
similarities with OpenID.

 

Thank you
