Good idea. The only weak point I see is centralisation. Maybe we could create a TXT DNS record in the XMPP server domain pointing to a service doing the translation? (DNS resolution is not really an overhead for HTTP server.) Ex.: server.org IN TXT "openid http://openid.server.org/?jid="; which concatenated with JID gives http://openid.server.org/[EMAIL PROTECTED] that serves/redirects to OpenID server. Or maybe we could use SRV record type somehow? -- /\_./o__ Tomasz Sterna (/^/(_^^' http://www.xiaoka.com/ ._.(_.)_ im:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ JDev mailing list FAQ: http://www.jabber.org/discussion-lists/jdev-faq Forum: http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=20 Info: http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev Unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________
