My openid is "http://www.jcea.es/";. Pretty obvious and pretty personal. But I "delegate" to "myopenid" to avoid to run my own OpenID provider. The interesting thing is that if tomorrow I have my own provider, or I don't trust "myopenid" anymore, I can change my delegation to something else. And every site that accepts "http://www.jcea.es/"; as my OpenID, would keep working perfectly. So delegation is actually a very crucial feature of OpenID. - -- Jesus Cea Avion _/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/_/ [email protected] - http://www.jcea.es/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ jabber / xmpp:[email protected] _/_/ _/_/ _/_/_/_/_/ . _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "Things are not so easy" _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "My name is Dump, Core Dump" _/_/_/ _/_/_/ _/_/ _/_/ "El amor es poner tu felicidad en la felicidad de otro" - Leibniz -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQCVAwUBSwG7Mplgi5GaxT1NAQKIQAP/c+x+pjLhXOzERY41h2AF1WKoc7tec3JF tUbFmLm3dA8oVHFEdRkkWxPINjzghNRxIpon7mTuWlYGf+QAWRKfjxQv6c3WSMhB tOEAtSQ8xKtulONafuj/wpykV9Grmpvi8HtnvXGqCtIaJujx5pBm8v7PkyKhew4q cB0OM/kvtI8= =1862 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Catalog-SIG mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/catalog-sig
